path
of

pain,
suffering.
Many

extended,
few
to be
found.
Short

Game
over.
Much to
overcome.
Ladders
to climb.
Success.
No
guarantee.
Obstacles
abound.
Dog eat
dog.
Pushed
down
stepped
over,
on.
Tough
enough
as is.

suffering.
Cold.
Selfish,
self serving.
Ruling
the waves.
Kindness
in short

Meanness
in abundance.
Life.
What
a different
experience
for all,
if the
guiding
light of
kindness

the way.
