Paradigm Shift

 

I’m changing fixed positions

On opinions and deductions

From now on breathing other airs

I have a stack of fresh instructions

Letting go of once held handlebars

Veering off from straight-line steering

Riding curves requiring nerves

Whilst watching stances disappearing

Gamblers wait to turn their cards

Consider risk-maintaining stakes

Ask what can we afford to lose
Whilst still expecting lucky breaks

Beachy Head

A pebble on its holiday 

Came by to get a tan 

Relaxing in the solar rays

Near a Hull built caravan 

Nose jobs notwithstanding 

Feeling generally out of shape 

Moulded by a misspent life 

In and out of every scrape

Based on an Idea by Dean Wilson

Pebble of the week:

The Point

Photo by Cristian Palmer on Unsplash

The point is always where it is

In the future and the past

Not arriving nor surviving

Not second place - Not first nor last

active in a spot-on place

At the point of no return

Who knows how the point was made

Neither grave nor grim nor stern

The point is sometimes never got

Don't pay that any mind

Although concealed until revealed

Is not so hard to find
