Poem -
Slippery Slope Part 5
A Countless Rant
Spit spot.
Maybe I`ll drop
Maybe the crevasse will swallow
Maybe it`ll stop.
Penny for those thoughts.
If I was taught.
How to not behave.
In a chess game full of mistakes.
Oh so, now you want a.
Peace of mind?
Trying not to repeat,
That “I`m alive”.
Or at least I`m not dead.
Is that how people survive?
Positive psychology alright I`ll try.
But the hand plays games better
Then the mind.
I`m simple.
Basic.
State it.
Lately
Complexity
Draining.
Running dry.
Fires.
Nightmares.
And random dreams.
That prevents a good rest.
Lost in my own dreams.
And wasted water
Down the drain…
Spent.
How`d we get here?
The Fish of the Sea.

Awww thanks Marion! Hugs to you my friend. I reckon they should rename likes to "Marion hearts" eh? What do you think ;)? Hope I get a smile out of you my friend. Hope you are well. Max
Down the drain spent.
So many meanings within your words and work. Love the truth you hide so well. In the best ways possible.
Awww thanks so much Liliana, to be honest this one is a little undercooked for my liking. Glad you enjoyed it! Kind regards. Your friend Max
Max, that's life you win some and then lose some, just got to gee yourself up and try not to think about it, but we will, we all do, if we're honest, just part of being human.
A neatly woven poem and we all get good days/ thoughts and their polar opposites.
There's no real magic bullet or wonder cure, just ride it out and hope for best.
That great virtue called hope.
Thanks for writing and sharing Max, full honours and I wish you well and hang in there with the rest of us mere mortals.
Your friend Shaun.
Awww shucks Shuan, thank you so much. I can be honest to say that this poetry album, "Slippery slope" really highlighted my problems and allowed me to vent deeper feelings in a nonsensical way. I know its nowhere near my best work, this one got heaps of flow issues! But all my poems push me further on my journey, as hurdles to jump and overcome, but they don't represent my identity.
Really your comment on this one touched me Shuan. And I would like to add that this album is officially discontinued! Time to move up and forward. All a result of cosmos and community support.
Cheers again and calm waters.
Your friend Max
Wow Max such strong words here I think this is my favourite stanza in this poem. I loved all of it but this one section just spoke out to me. Life truly can feel like a minefield. Turbulent and unpredictable. It sends us on a rollercoaster of emotions. Overwhelming at times. You are really good at blowing my mind with your words, which is always so enjoyable. Thank you 💛
Ah thank you Gwen! Yes, I'm really touched you find my words blow you away, although your work is heaps better formed than mine! I apologize for flow in this one.... but tha is for the kudos! Your friend Max
