When the Balance Wheel is Broken
when the balance wheel
is broken ..
when the main spring
has been sprung ..
when there are too many
complications
and when the date
and time are both wrong ..
maybe it’s time
to think of saying goodbye
and though not
afraid of death or of dying
I need to die slower ..
since my fine house is not
yet In order ..
I need to post more first
class letters,
write that last poem down
then go wipe my
computer, before I say my
final goodbyes ..

Always good to there be that place, that home to go back to when things go awry. Being off kilter is personally for me a killer. Hope the situation has changed for the better since this writing and posting.
Something is afoot and it aint just twelve inches CB .. I need to get to the bottom of this .. take care .. N
I am always here for you Neville.

Well I just want to cry ❤️
I love the phrasing and how the message spins but am personally a bit fearful or ambivalent about all that content and meaning potentially within.

I'm still not sure what is going on here .. I just hope the site is playing very temporary tricks LIZ 💜

I'm always here for ya too - but I may be a fat lot of help! Doh!
never a good thing to feel off kilter. This has a very sad tone to it. May there be no final goodbyes....
Not sure what is going on .. the site seems to eat up my words .. No no fin
Hope you're OK. Ignore my last comments to you. They were in jest.
Maybe you've got tech problems. I get them from time to time. Your words are always "first class."
A few years ago, I lost my computer to a massive failure and consequently, lost a few years' worth of work. Hope get back to normal soon. - Phil A.

I've been saying this to most today, but I'll say it again. Go out and get some sunshine right now or when it shines again. You are a wonderful expressive. Thanks for your sharing.
you can beat an egg and a drum .. but you can't beat a decent bit o sunshine can ya .. cheers .. Neville
The central question I ask myself from time to time: do I want to go fast or slow...?
Still not sure, but will I, in the end (yeh - that one) have much choice? Rang many bells for me; thanks Neville.
Be sure you are not alone, but thanks for letting me know my friend .. Neville
