Mortal Moments and Morality

"The Seven Deadly Sins" by Pieter Brueghel

Simple moments and kisses
are for stealing

spongy crabby grass, squeaky pool rafts
are for lying

one can cheat at the race of time
by living in the moment

Philosophic inquiry and idle curiosity
never hurt a fly

Logic and Geometry, trapped sticky strings of thought
The Machiavellian webs we weave

Creeps and Opportunist may pray upon the weak
Lay in wait with incorruptible malice

Sin without Pleasure
Pain with no Gain

Acts of immorality
Feats of mortality

sealing ones fate
in the Karmic Realm
of possibilities
where Paradise was lost
but Humanity found

Heavenly bodies
Angels in action
Ghostly haunts
Demonic desire

lines in the sand
glass between toes
shards of time
a trace of what matters

Singeing flesh
blinding light
gut instinct
a Sixth sense

Acrid salty mists
Infiltrating and asphyxiating  

at the end of land and rope
twisted stronger by fate
at the tip of the iceberg
on the verge of reason

Choose to live
Resign in death

paralyzed in fear
suffocating in security

To dare, to taunt
To tempt and tease

Inventing not Alibis
nor concocting Lies;
Fracturing the Tenet
while embracing
in You-

Feeling still-

virtuously Alive.

And then...

  Change is like that strong smell of cut grass or chopped wood that stops you still. Patterns, a symbol can be an illegible sign,  at first...
