You're on

A slippery slope

When you climb

A mountain

Without a rope..

A slippery slope
vote and hope.
Don’t read prior
dire straits crier.
Time to mope.

She ran as swiftly as she could
down the slippery slope
through the sifting sand
to the sparkling ship
to sail on soothing seas.

Through the long winters up in Maine
Her virtue she aims to maintain
Though she tries best to cope
On a slippery slope
She slips and falls now and again...

Forlorn hope.
A slippery slope.
Don't be a dope.
You can't marry a Pope.
Talk about a soap.
Save the part you elope.
I would not be able to cope
With such forlorn hope....

NEVER FORGET BENGHAZI 

Policy makers 
objectives verses orders
Field duplicity 

A slippery slope

My mind,
Slippery slope,
Once in, hard to get out,
It is an enigma, beware...
this maze!

Rapunzels hair having great wear and tear,
enchantress gave her hair conditioner,
hair a long rope,
slippery slope,
prince climbing becoming a nightmare.

 Wild weather worked a wicked prank;
Bankrupt I went, then sank and drank.
To be more precise 
Funds melted like ice,
Deposited in the wrong bank.

There once was a mathematician named Swope
Who said,” In calculus, while I’m deriving, I hope
To find an function so perfect
No tangent could touch it
Lest I fall on a slippery slope"...

Our reaction to pain
oft makes life a slippery slope.

But the darkness of pain buckles,
under the brightness of hope.

Comfortable was the relationship
Compassionate was the love
Tranquil were the days of bliss
Slippery slope was the surprise

Love is a journey,
a thrilling ride.
Love is a camera,
full of memories.
Love is a battlefield,
bound in blood. 
Love is the smell of rain,
after a storm.
Love is a slippery slope,
leading to neverland....

My mind is a slippery slope
Once in, it’s hard to get out,
Set in layers of intricate meshes
You’ll get entangled in my evil ways…
Beware, stay away!

The wind howls, trees sway and branches creak
Across frozen, snow covered ground
Where ice merges all around
As if life has now found
A slippery slope
On which to cope
While watching
The sun
Set

Reality, a slippery soap
It's slipping from my hands
But God is helping me cope
With trials I don't understand

Reality, a slippery slope
I'm slipping as I land
But God is my strong, tight rope
I know I'm in loving hands...

Just Saying
Miracle Man

When I feel I’m stranded
on a slippery slope,
I just look to Jesus
for He gives me hope.
 Each day, I’m forced 
to adapt to change,
Health concerns
my thoughts derange.

A scratch of paper is what I need

Pen and paper performs the deed

Imagine these words to bring us hope

A scratch of paper on a slippery slope

A stroke of genius and the moment is caught

A scratch of paper to share my thought...

Tis a slippery slope they say
Tis too complicated they say
Tis sure to fail they say

But what in life is easy
Commitment tis never breezy
Divided we stand sure is messy

Pursue my love I shall
Right or wrong tis my call
This chance I’ll give my all...

Crashing waves
white capped guilt
Stone like will
crushed to silt
Parry clouds
this driving rain
Heartbreak city
shows no pity
Looks of hope
a slippery slope
Changing lanes
while dodging pain
Reality smacks in your face
desperation to keep pace....

You are sliding a slippery slope
I tell my darling prince
He shudders, not knowing what he has done
to incur my wrath
I am not about to tell him either
The guessing is what keeps him on his toes
and possibly keeps him solicitous 
keeping the marriage alive....

SLIPPERY SLOPE



If the world’s intentions
Were turned into actuality
Wars, famines, infections
Would cease to be reality



Our broad highway is not internet
But icy blackness without brakes
For most there is no safety net
But there must  be  - for all our sakes...

Love is supposed to be patient and kind.
But sometimes it’s of another mind, and blind.
It should always protect, trust, and offer hope.
But when it doesn’t, it’s a slippery slope.

She swims on streaming sonata of spring song, 
sailing slow sings solo in squall surge so strong,
slips on sheer slippery slope of sticky silt sheets,
on split Sitar of snapped strings she sourly sits.
