Ready Made Unbroken

Comes a time of unbreaking what's broken maybe broken to the point a thing can't be fixed ever forever severed. To be sure prayers can find a home but not when a devine plan's mark is missed yet must insist with clenched fist I resist. A simple woodcarver, be like Mister Geppetto fend off a life of despair perhaps with a little help from a Fairy with Turquoise Hair. For a creator nothing causes elation like its finest creation seeking salvation. All may end in ruin in stringed freedom's destroy it's never easy bein' a wooden boy. Life's call is abrupt so keep your dukes up.

I enjoyed reading this one and the reference to the wooden puppet. Lots of great movies made about him and Geppetto

A most meaningful write. Sometimes, I found we are our own worst enemies. It seems there is always a collaboration of antagonists out to destroy us . But we are perfect as is. All have that the feeling.. I must change. It’s cracked. We are on earth but a short time.I have outlived my friends. Not a wrinkle on my face. I had enough terror in my life. It’s a miracle I look this good. And my stance to be myself is stronger than ever. Your poem is divinely, unique. Love Pangie

Never more truth said my good friend. I've lived most of my life with my dukes up. Being always ready is half the struggle won without even have thrown a pinch. A fav my friend,

I had this discussion not so long ago with someone dear to me who, with shaking fist, asked: 'Why me?' Is Fate ordained, or do we court it? I agree with your philosophy expressed in the last verse. A well penned poem that resonated with me, Richard. Regards, Suzette
