Premium Member Crutches and Chains
You are not a submissive mind. Or a dominant mind. You have attractions and desires. They aren’t you. They aren’t your chains. Neither are your life circumstances. You are, with the infinite. You experience this in the present moment. Your mind is powerful. It is liberated. It is free. It can roam where it will. It...

Cognitive Crutches

Kinetic ardour of the car, exiled him to static rust in a vegetative state... bereft of cognition. But his mind still addled... in lucid ambition. His skin could still touch rain.. His eyes...

Premium Member Two Walkers and a Wheelchair
Oh my yes, I do have two walkers and a chromed wheelchair. Procured them years ago when I tore my ACL one day. Twas a mis-adventure of missing a chair high in the air. When I take a painful arthritic step I do not delay. Get out my arsenal of aids and travel without a care. Helped friends who unexpectedly...

Crutches
A man on crutches passed me by And sparked some rumination. We all require some support To keep in circulation. It may not be as obvious As crutches made of wood, But something helps us get around And live the lives we should. Perhaps a person is the means Of keeping us from falling – A spouse or relative or friend Who answers when we’re calling. A...

By: Ali Taha Alnobani My crutches: You shared me all my life But I didn't I was a bird My wings shared the love rhyme To take a look before the adventure To have love forever *** My desire is wider than the open sea and the sky Feathers which grew on my two crutches Drank the wind like a roaring waterfall I can understand...
