Rolling

Rolling my thoughts along on a wave of reason

Items pass to the crest, boil and become subdued again

Pulled down by the force of another,

Fighting it's way to the top

Some thoughts are discarded and cast aside,

Slowly building up the seabed, others are nurtured and tendered

To sustain the momentum of forward motion

My mind is a rolling wave,

Approaching from different angles and with

Different intensities as my mood dictates

In the night it crashes on a lonely shore

And breaks the beach into patterns of destruction

By morning all may become calm again,

Yet ever rolling on it goes, changing with time

I am now at a lull, a moment of pause

Before again I roll towards a distant beach

My task to perform

Challenging the inertia of intransigence
