Aquaplane

Aquaplane

Full of momentumย 
Intoxicated on summer's sunshineย 
No respect for the rainย 
I need to stop suddenlyย 
Can't do it gently
Slam on the breaksย 
And drift eloquently
In slow motion...
I aquaplaneย 

Danger in beauty
Beauty in wisdom
Bones fracture brilliantly
Like light in prismsย 
No room for logic
Slow motion gliding
Common sense hiding...ย 
Cataclysmย 

Palace of wisdom?
If I live, leave me bleeding
Sucking moist air
With blood, hair and glass
Wrapped around my face
Whiplash with no headrest
Leave me crippledย 
And crumpled...
ย 
Another rusted ruin
At the side of the road to excess...

Dear Syd,

Aquaman is flying
Through the clouds of pouring rain
He swears at thunder's warning
Treats the lightning with disdain

.
One day his plane will crumble
And come crashing to the ground
But he begs you not to save him
For in death, such peace will he have found!

Love,
Larry xxx

What a write ?
excess of anything is never good.ย 

love the momentum that kept building up till d end. Tragic are accidents undoubtedly ย but a learning lesson to never cross those bounds. Your poem speaks so thickly about how difficult restitution is when tragedies occur.ย 
Thats why someone quotes โ€œprevention is better than cureโ€ย 

liked it very muchย

Hi Charu, apologies for my late reply. I'm glad you like my poem. Thank you so much for reading and commenting. I agree that excess of anything is never good and that "prevention is better than a cure"

Unfortunately, I struggle with my drinking among other things, but hopefully soon I'll improve.

Take careย  - Syd xoย
