Donations are essential to keep Write Out Loud going    

The song that never ends

if you let the words flow without control you will often learn something about yourself that you didn't already know

Through the linking chain of riddle and rhyme you carry the meaning like cords in a Key or of waves on the sea

the flow of human nature through our perceptions and our longing to be free.

Our written expressions to bring definition

we must look out to look in

as we try to close the loop of endless time

as we reach the climax from our birth

this feeling of not wanting to be left behind

it's a struggle to keep up

you could drink his blood out of the golden cup

or take a dip in the Ganges river

to bear his holy presents

or wash away your sins with a heavy shiver

but I find it right here

right where I'm sitting, flow with a little control

can't quite close the loop

can't tell you something you didn't already know

Thanks for the comment Big Sal. Glad you liked it. It started as a comment that morphed into a poem of its own.
Write on.
