"WILDCAT"

                                   
Jodie sometimes talks about the way the cloth of life is made -
Even as we weave the front, the back might be unraveling;
Time is always moving and the light of day is meant to fade –
Even while we’re standing still our life is swiftly traveling.


So I choose to make my own choices; turning from dissenting voices
- never be a puppet that somebody else is posing.
For every freedom I explore, opening another door
- somewhere in another place another door is closing.

                                             ~:~:~:~

          If you try to catch a wildcat and put it in a pen,
          soon the beauty that you saw will disappear – and then
          what is left of all that triggered your desire at first?
          ...Water has no value when you don’t feel any thirst.

Jodie sometimes talks about decisions other people make –
whether they make sense or not is not for her to say;
Everyone must for themselves decide which course is best to take –
hoping in the process to improve some future day.

even when we’re standing still our life is swiftly traveling;
Jodie sometimes talks about the way the cloth of life is made –
even as we weave the front, the back might be unraveling…

  1. Quite, quite brilliant. If only more people could stumble upon your writing they would, I'm sure, say brilliant too.
