When Sparks Fly

Life cracks me up 
Throwing bricks at my face
Dodging them through the paths of the wilderness
Where the water buffalo roam
Strangers make accusations
or peek into business
Where eyes will be destroyed for piercing through sharp glass
Note to self don't ever look back
Keep pushing through raging waters
Breaking the strong current apart
To the point where grace returns to spark your enlightened poetic heart

Embrace that hidden inspiration, seeping around corners of frustration and judgment. Well said!
