Paradigm
Status Quo
Safe reason
Jealously protected
The boundaries,
A svelte loop of opinion
Juxtaposed reason
Walling
Stone by stone
Sheltered
on one side.
Exposed on the other
Until the wall
Topples down
Nothing like causing change... well-written!
ReplyDeleteOoh, I like the sheltered on one side, exposed on the other. Nice!
ReplyDeleteI love how you've given voice and action to inanimate things. This is really interesting. Thanks so much for linking up!
ReplyDeleteA lot to think about between your words - like it
ReplyDeleteRead through twice. "Sheltered on one side. Exposed on the other" Loved that.
ReplyDeleteAnn, there was a bit of toppling in my piece this week as well. A fun coincidence!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Gina-I loved that passage! Stellar writing, once again!
svelte loops are like that body part, or are they? In some people it is a fat circle.
ReplyDeleteThis is well-written. I like it (:
ReplyDeleteThis is a great image - I loved the way the poem progressed
ReplyDeleteBeautifully described . . .
ReplyDeletesooooo good - love this line: A svelte loop of opinion
ReplyDeleteI think I know that guy!
Love how you set it up and then have it topple down. The weight of imbalance.
ReplyDeleteThe walls must come down, to restore balance. I liked the balance of this piece!
