Beats of time reverberate wholeheartedly,
Echoes reply and carry on the game.
Ages pass without compassion and acquiesce,
Suffering the ravages of man and beast.
Beats in time; rhythmically, belligerently,
Death is a drum roll in this excuse me of a dance.
Doubts in our minds torment us constantly,
Voices ill perceived cause havoc to sustain.
Wars do pass but go on relentlessly,
Continual and incessant; the suffering of all beasts.
Beating in time, rhythmically but belligerently,
We all waltz to the same tune in this excuse me of a dance.

I write poetry/prose/stories/short stories/verses for children/sketch/and have 6 chapters of a novel sitting there like that half eaten trifle in the fridge or bottle of Jack Daniels because something makes you afraid to eat it or drink... right now..
I am a proud Geordie from England's northern hemisphere and the beautiful city of Newcastle upon Tyne. I live with my lovely husband who came all the way from sunny California just for me, and my favourite animal, Bobble, our dog.
I am a member of Greenpeace and Friends of the Earth and wish we could all do more, especially today, when such a lot is wrong.

In the midst of suffering, time seems to stand still, makes the sufferers feel that it will never end. Time does go on like the adagio of the music. I enjoy this post.
