smear of age

wind seething

teething emotions grind

beyond the fringe of our frayed ends of our tempers

patience runs

on the old wheels creaking in dull cracked joints

chafing down a crease

turning into another line

another frown


Smell spices, foreign bland a compromise

And then soap to wash away its blandness

Hands fingers swollen raw 

Wash cook clean for mouths not your family. 

Children home no longer within touch but a

 concept strong.


Sweeps, seeps steep, sleep 

Sip 

I drink in drought for a feverish wish. 

I want my children free.


Seething detergent

teething emotions grin

my beautiful face

beyond the frayed ends of my temple

my fingers swollen raw, tendee

patience runs on prayer

wheels creaking in dull cracked joints


I si

chafing down a soapy creas

turning into another lin

a harder frow

Also, ascertain what you want to sacrifice . (time/money/patience/difficult situations) The price will be  "Where there is no vision, people perish"-Solomon  CHOOSE YOUR REASONS Do you have insight to yourself? Be a person of deep water, look deeper. Introspect. What...

Conflating the liberty of freedom and burden of choice, and finding the balance in between

"...the individual ceases to be himself; he adopts entirely the kind of personality offered to him by cultural patterns; and he therefore becomes exactly as all others are and as they expect him to be...The person who gives up his individual self and becomes an automaton, identical with millions of other automatons around him, need not feel alone and anxious any more. But the price he pays, however, is high; it is the loss of his self." -Escape From Freedom by Erich Fromm, first published by Holt, Rineheart and Winston, New York, 1941. http://www.alternativeinsight.com/Escape_from_freedom.html and then comes the question many strive to answer; what do we risk to lose when we are already in an individualised state of mind? Even more, i think. The attraction of the self makes it even harder to conform, whilst the pressure for conformity never ceases—in fact the pressure exponentially increases—staring you down through that bright screen all day and for most of the night.
