Provider
Greater, or lesser,
A king and a tool.
Sometimes it serves us and sometimes it rules
But when we expect it to be far away,
it will do both and expect us to pay.
Destroy
Leaving nothing in my wake I will destroy.
There was something that once was great I will destroy.
And yet nothing is absolute, I may burn but the very act of destruction is incomplete, as we can only build out of what exists when we break something apart there are parts left, and though we may see it as something incapable of repair. We are destroying not creating, and we do not see what a creative can build out of what remains, and what can be rebuilt. Even when what is rebuilt is the same.
Reduce
A word can have two opposites if I don’t reduce it’s meaning.
And I don’t want to put in the time or mental effort to produce more content today, but I’ll reduce my resistance then push through.
There will have been once more, and in the future, there will be less.
This work I don’t adore, but people will think better.
Simple but not completely so.
Some words I must let go.
Shrink
One who practices psychology but with the theme I’m going for that would be a smart-ass answer.
To decrease in size with no evident renewal? Or to take part of and leave?
To hit with a ray that makes much trouble but in that I don’t believe.
Arm
To strike with an arm through a leg would be stronger, and arm is the tool of control.
To war we are armed our enemies skewered, with a desire to claim control.
(The quality and length of these seem to be in opposition to the quantity I create and how much else I do in the day. But I spent this day occupied and with great headaches. So I’ll cut this short. I have little momentum left today, but I’ll start tomorrow with more of these and see where that takes me.)
