Perceptions


sits a sunkissed frog
On shores of a lake,
suddenly his visons fog,
as he spots a snake


overpowered by fright
he plunges into watery drain
to preordain
that he shall see tomorrow's light
he will come out
again

roams a troubled man
on shores of the same lake,
Heartbroken by pain,
A decision he wants to make

Overpowered by sorrow,
he plunges in self disdain;
he burries his tomorrow,
into the watery drain,
he will come out,
never again.

same plunge
may support
may expunge
the persistence for existence

same water
shows light,
for the smarter.
kills light,
for the departer.
