incredible rain: a pentaprismic suite
of floods and famines, flaws and fools
4. flaws
indelible stain
marks well the parchment of the careless ink
that scribbles disdain
to push humility out on the brink
high horses will trip
when challenged by a slippery-slopey path
saved not by the whip
of him who navigates with fuming wrath

I am deeply grateful for your interest and encouragement, Ahavati. I was, indeed, exploring an idea with this series, and I believe it has paid off even better than anticipated. Thanks for the R/L. It says a lot to me.
