erupt

time flowing backwards now
more than past the halfway point
the dreams we've found just out of reach
walls of hope have long been breached
so many times so far from perfection
moments of clarity plagued by insanity
last rites of a small man
smacked down by a tall hand
raised up on mistrust
staying poised to erupt

Sounds like the other side of 50 years old to me. Starting out young and so many dreams and when we reach 50 we begin to access our life - where we came from and how far have we come and what goals have we failed to reach and where has life and God led us. Lots of times it's amazing to see and others distressful to see. Thanks for sharing.

Sorry - misspelled assess - I was right to start with and it didn't look right. Sign of aging! laugh
