Pestilence

When the dynamo
of effervescent truisms
rears it's head
through anxiety laden thoughts

you begin to understand
the ebb and flow
of the mysteries
of the mind.

You realize that sometimes
reflections mixed with meditation
can lead you to
wild ruminations

whereby you create
unrealistic situations
fostered by introspection.
It is just a fact

of human nature
that everyone must deal with
on this mixed-up
crazy ride.

oh this is so true, our minds can take us places we don't need to go sometimes. It truly is a crazy ride. I enjoyed reading this, Frank.
