Another Blow


sinister gods of the universe
preparing, diligently
come forth
another...

blow, blow, BLOW!
all-encompassing
oblivious, scattered minds
feeling safe

blind-sided
by fates...too many
wrongful duties
to of which is the purpose?

insight to thyself
knowledge
good, not enough
bad, be of plenty

growth...
endured
each blow,
strengthing

knock down, no more
hurt, no longer
existence
forthcoming

  8. What knocks you down makes you strong as you push back up again until you can't be pushed no more

  9. Kay,
    Fantastic and very powerful words...
    Yes, the "gods of the universe" have a plan to round us all up, dehumanize and turn us into the numb, following sheep... If we get stronger and fight back with knowlege there is hope for the existence...
    Excellent write!!
