Premium Member To Overcome Inertia
An object, once it’s resting tends to stay there, it is true. Forgetting its priorities and all it needs to do. To be a man in motion, a dream of awesome bliss… To be a force that no one can resist… To overcome inertia and not lie there where I fell. To shake free of my shackles and...

She was discovered in 1705; From Latin: lack of skill, slothfulness. Obviously, not a quality to be desired on one's resume. I do not recall when first encountering her, but there was something special about the sound of her three-syllable flow. INERTIA [ in-ur-shuh, ih-nur- ]. No, it was not the sight of her, so mesmerizing to my eyes. Rather, there was a...

He sits there stone-still, eyes closed. "The world's still turning, Husband! When will you arise?" What is this state called? He says it’s meditation, but I think it’s inertia. Dete Written: April 9, 2020 Contest: Pick a Title-Sedoka--Inertia placed 4th Sponsor: Edward Ibeh...

INERTIA I seek nirvana sitting still to prey upon a silent cloud without a color save for dun its shapes that mingle as they will likened to a comely face awaiting color from the sun where sounds are mute with just my sight an aimless trek meanderng an omen cautioning a sign and darkness enters in the night with just the gist of loitering now Buddha’s...
