blind thread insist until people
power voice web drum think
In a blind rage he shoved it down their throat
Bewildered like a mirror shattered in adversity
They countered in threads of different modes
Never to insist a let-up of pain of such intensity
Until he saw that people with power
like falling snow
Were of no consequence in the beginning but their voice
quivered as wilted leaves moving even a little slow
Finally realized a web of options not to their choice
Drummed into thick skulls impervious to hard knocks
Unrelenting to think it was plain sailing to break
them
Even from among domestic animals like cats and dogs
They offered less resistance than obstinate humans
The kitten seems so innocent in a world full of power hungry people.

What is that saying? the more I know humans, the more I love my dog...........we can learn much from the critters. Well done, Hank.

ReplyDeleteCats and dogs are better than most humans any day of the week.
ReplyDeleteWhat a contrast between a kitten and power-seeking humans.
ReplyDeletePeople who allow things to be shoved down their throats, give those people with "co-called" authority their power. Animals are smarter than that!
ReplyDeleteOur perception of beauty or cuteness in animals or each other sadly has nothing to do with the character or demeanor they possess. Cute cats can scratch!
ReplyDeletesometimes humans do fail miserably and animals are better...
ReplyDeleteSome challenging words but you pulled it off.
