Among The Branches (Of The Tree Of Life)




A life harsh yet full of fulfilment;
Despair and wonder at every pitch and turn
A dangerous adventure for such sensitive souls;
One requiring mastery of the many human masks;
Emotions at every level ... worn on the sleeve

Wearing the scars and the taunts perpetually
As merely part of the game;
Playing the role to perfection ... taking it all too seriously;
Recalling in rare, lucid moments the truth ...


Matthew James
