Reconciling never ends
As the narrow bones
Widen into countries
And the steps descend
Into chaotic drumbeats
We churn the gold out
Spread it on idols
Tarnished repetition
Tok tok tok tok tik
Developing desperation
The bell tolled
And landscapes rolled
And nobody
Was the wiser
HASTYWORDS 
I heard somebody quoted today (I forget who) as saying the world is perfect and beautiful, but humans are a great disappointment. Yes, there are days that feel that way, and I think you painted it well.

It’s an old story told and retold. How we fall short because we lack the memory of lessons learned and learned and learned.

HASTY – None the wiser?

And that is why, this world is, in this huge a mess, because none of the leaders are, wise enough, but they foolishly believe, that, they are, the, wisest of them, all! And it’s still, we the people, who will end up, suffering the, most.
