For much delaying

To walk 
Alone

My heart 
Is gone 
And my

Don’t pan out 
And lost am I  
Within what's 
Planned or 
All been done...

Literal Drax and the Soup of Sayings

Drax, with a literal mind,
Tried "metaphor soup," he did find,
It tasted like chairs,
And invisible bears,
"This 'saying' is truly unkind!"

Sayings From Long Ago
“A good beginning is half the battle”
                     and
      “All’s well that ends well”

       in between is why
   I’m not sure if this is so....

The Believers - Chapter 23, Verses 91, Holy Koran
Never did Allah take to Himself a son
And never was there any god with Allah the One
If it were
All gods would take away their created things
And all gods would try to overpower one another
Allah’s Glory is above their sayings....

Happy feels easy
Sorrow heaps plenty


Sadness feels heavy
Placid prompts cheery


Motive moves fancy
Discrete sows amply 


Divine mind inspires
Human kind conspires
