Exhaustion drags downward
Like a soaked cloak –
No, a sturdy shield:
Heavy enough to dispel attacks,
Simultaneously trapping
The inexperienced.

Exhaustion Drags Downward
Frustrations
Getting put off
Again and again, treated
Like a spoiled, needy child
Or a whiny idiot to avoid
Revealing their own lack of
Education and work ethic
The Disconnect Reconnect
A single voice
Inside my mind –
No leaping images,
Vying for time –
Fecund thoughts
In silence, sublime
And eyes more enlightened
Than blind.
Resolutions
Designed with care and
Erected to last:
Strong steel and a
Concrete core.
Impenetrable,
Impermeable –
Unyielding.
An overnight change,
An instant corrosion:
Gossamer glass and a
Fractured foundation.
Fragile,
Flimsy –
Shattered.
Scattered dust
Litters the ground,
Joining the rest:
Fertile ground
For building
