Too Comatose To See

inextinguishable
is your appetency
for what you suspire

you feed on this drug
to make life passable
but by the same line
that educes endurance
it will transport
inevitable death

Thank you Kim...i know of too many to list...to watch children grow into adults is wonderful, but to see them fall so young is heartbreaking... hugs

Very deep my friend--that which inspires can sometimes be harmful--but not always obvious. Well said, Sandy--best for a TOP win.

I totally agree w/Chris ... this is some kinda potent muse elixir, Sandra! Your quill thoughts opens a third eye to ink see. Powerful poem per usual from your talented pen. Love and smiles and smiles of joy always.

Thank you so much Freddie... sometimes they are too out of it to realize that what makes them feel powerful will also knock them down eventually... hugs

One of the best I have seen for this contest. Short but direct, a deep message that is definitely understood. Best wishes in the contest my friend. Another amazing write from your magical pen.

Thank you Chris, you kindness is appreciated my friend... it seems to be an epidemic and i know it has hit this area hard.. so many kids i have driven have crossed that line...i think the police told us there are a minimum of three a day some they save some they don't, but the addict even seeing this doesn't realize it could happen to them... sadly... hugs :)
