    Next: age, power, humanity, wind, island, paradox

    The paradox of humanity

    Does humanity progress with age?
    I donīt think so.
    The thirst after power and fame
    Is to great.
    Wisdom touches it
    only lightly as the soft wind
    that sweeps over a small island bends
    the vegetation slightly
    without leaving a stronger mark.

    New challenge: chance, theater, evolving, crossing, ethereal, beings.

    Challenge: chance, theater, evolving, crossing, ethereal, beings

    Commendaces & Consolation

    Xyphon, I, a lowly man, did journey by and by
    aye, did chance upon Phrontis' lonely mound
    renowned Menelaus himself mournfully wrought -
    shot dead was Phrontis by the vengeful Apollo

    Hollow are the beings who've stopped evolving
    solving naught but imputed impediments -
    predicaments of desiccated human theater -
    greater an epic tragic ode of consequences alike

    Belike crossing ethereal waters without a drachma,
    ah, insufficient for the ferryman's fare thereupon

    Challenge: balance, frame, bubble, density, vision, pyramid

    I and the bubble

    I live in a bubble
    Sometimes it is round
    and I must be cautious,
    for, as the ground keeps
    gliding away under my feet,
    owning to the bubble's
    continuous movement,
    there is a lot of
    stumbling.

    At
    other times
    the bubble becomes
    a lofty and dense pyramid
    offering a distant vision of summits.

    I balance between these two frames,
    but I canīt format them.
    They keep escaping me.

    Transcendence at 4th and Vine

    transcendence is jolly for grapes implying
    spirited wines or brandies - whilst those whose
    inspiration lies in the world of sobriety acquit
    themselves as candies, jams, and jellies

    Next: fossil, landscape, Venus, tangle, empire, whisper

    Enjoyed the "sweet" poem.

    Next: fossil, landscape, Venus, tangle, empire, whisper

    Oil race

    Entire empires whisper wistfully
    about secret fossil landscapes,
    yielding the precious petrol.
    There is more than one Venus necessary,
    To unmake entanglements.

    Next challenge: vessel, amplitude, journey, traveling, lingo, inviting.

    Thanx I came up with the title out of the blue, and then, as a lark, googled "4th and Vine" and found a gem of a wine shop with that name in St. Petersburg, Florida, lol.

    Enjoyed "Oil race"... yes, too many entanglements indeed.

    future extinctions

    perhaps you've never heard of me -
    a new world spirit vessel of the old
    forest - it would take quite some time
    traveling - a journey to where tall
    lush trees whose amplitude once flor-
    ished where we olingos loved to get
    lost in, now an uninviting oblivion
