pop.

where does the world go

when the bubble pops?

after all, 

the seed cannot be unplanted,

or the apple uneaten..

it's impossible to close the lid

of a box you were never meant to open.

oh pandorafingers, 

where was your mind

when your heart went seeking answers?

It's amazing that the word 'pop' exists, that there is language, that that language is English, and that we can ponder things in it. Our existance is astonishing and the word POP is ... a pallindrome of some distinction. I don't know where life comes from or why, but bugger me it is amazing.

Youre words are right on the target you get a 100 perfecto!

It had inhabited a dog who was chasing his tail.

when choices are made...and directions change...we must accomodate the flow...or damage ourselves in the futile effort to close a case that circumstance has already opened...bubbles are designed to pop...that is their nature...as natural as pain and equally necessary in having to accept...for denial of such naturally occuring and behavioural phenomena is effectively exposing us to more intense variations and escalations in a direction that became irreversible when the choice was intiated by action in the first place...a very strong and inspirational write jenniewren honey :)
