Tumble On

power
dreaming
leads to
warlords 
scheming
leads to 
tempers
steaming
leads to
weapons
teeming
leads to
children 
screaming
leads to
shattered 
feelings
leads to
revenge
peelings
leads to
slowly
healing
and then
we hope
peaceful 
dealings

Man, your writing style is awesome, John. There's a reason I have been following your work. I can't wait for others to pick up on it. Thanks for giving me something to think over.

Thank you, I'm sort of astonished if what you say is true. I did some creative writing in school, but went in another direction.
