To be Born

to be born is an arduous and painful process

it is taking up the world, learning what

there is to be learnt, absorbing the knowledge,

and then when ready, succumb to the law of the

universe - be expelled from its womb the body - and be born

Plus and minus

The brave reign over slaves;
Slaves submit to the brave.
The strong prevail on the weak;
The weak succumb to the strong

Woman is brave.
Man is strong.

Both rule each other.
one mentally and
the other physically.

If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.

I belong to a nation which over the past centuries has experienced many hardships and reverses. The world reacted with silence or with mere sympathy when Polish frontiers were crossed by invading armies and the sovereign state had to succumb to brutal force.

You are shaky

Predator-prey is the world.
The survival of the fittest
Is the universal rule.
The fittest are not always
The strongest, the richest
Or the most powerful.
They are the strategists.
The strategists too succumb
To the accidentals.
You are any time shaky.

Ch 08 On Rules For Conduct In Life - Maxim 73

Who has no mercy upon inferiors will suffer from the tyranny of superiors.

Not every arm which contains strength
Breaks the hand of the weak for showing bravery.
Injure not the heart of the helpless
For thou wilt succumb to the force of a strong man

Another World

My mind.
It’s a complete
other world.

I could
live in there.
Is that crazy?

A land flowing beautiful dreams
purity sparkling crystal streams.

Many throughout
history succumb
to this inner resort.

Spinning mind.
It’s a complete
other world.

Polygonal Time....

the change
has many sides

it is not just
a circle

polygonal
it is my truth

there is
one that overruns
and there
are others
that succor
others succumb

filters like
a comb
traps like
a net

Take A Shower

Take a shower with me,
let me rub your back,
then kiss it sweetly,
as your body rubs against me,
the water hits use,
as we touch,
then caress,
warm and hot,
as the water unties our knots,
the steam makes us want,
to devourer each other,
then we succumb to the want.

Viva la difference or You Tarzan, me Jane

You Tarzan
Me Jane
You shout
Me explain
You dive in
Me refrain
You muscles
Me curves
You loud
Me reserved
You demand
Me defer
You impatient
Me serene
You dirty
Me clean
You handsome
Me pretty
You strong
me weak
