The ineffectual redundancy~
of treating symptoms instead of their cause
Seems to be practiced in abundancy~
although its logic is riddled with flaws...
So fleeting is the success in this way achieved~
needing to be called on time & again
Masking whatever the problem perceived~
in this masquerade ball without end...
And while, "make~believe" & I go way back~
wit' me and Cinderelly bein' tight
The villains don't always come dressed in black~
or disaster at the stroke of midnight...
So those who would see the manifestation~
as the reality of what by caused
This warning is for your contemplation~
& I hope by you're given pause...
...just a thought

I love your philosotry and I couldn't agree more with the message of this one. Whether it be for treating illnesses or just for more mundane things like arguments, it is all too often that we satisfy ourselves with a remedy that takes away the visible problems, but doesn't dig away to the root of it, so it just keeps coming back again and again.
For all the seriousness though, I still couldn't help but grin at the third stanza, it seemed a little tongue-in-cheek! However still a great analogy.
Wonderful read,
Dom |

Quite a message i'm reading in there. A most
provacative writting as only you can write for your wisdom is beyond your years and your experience berfriend's your tears, not to mention being a women, that alone give's you the edge. A master peice of poetry along with a shared logic . . . Beautiful Work as always from one so artistic and skillful in the ways of life and love and pain . . .

Oh my my my!!! Kerry, my sweet poetsis, I LOVE your Philosotry! Truly!!
This is exceptional both in wording and in thought hun. You do have the
most extraordinary down-to-earth way of thinking that I've ever known.
And hun, let me just say, it is extraordinarily beautiful.
as are you ~
I adore the third stanza, but wow man! This whole piece is a message
to all. (And a damn good one at that!) Perfectly worded in every way.
..perfection-

I don't know... I'm thinking you should have "... a keen observance" instead of "... just a thought" there at the end. *wink*
'Tis true... so many of us look for the quick fix, the make-it-go-away, the whatever-it-is that will make us feel better faster. I am guilty of the same at times. Effective? Mostly not, you're right. It is, perhaps, merely what we do until we're ready to do more.
There is, though, something to be said for awareness. It's no different, really, than the recovery programs for addicts... we have to recognize it as a problem, admit it, face it and change it. By virtue of the fact that we are aware, we are on our way, I believe. Oh, let us hope that we keep moving forward!
Great piece - obviously, making more than one of your reader pause and consider.

I totally agree with Snemmers, not just a thought but a keen observance.
Most enjoyable and wonderfully ascribed as always. Keep 'em coming sweet MissyMe~
