Chin Up
Hiding in lofts with sandbags at the door
is a coward's game.
We will keep our gazes high,
carry on playing cards
While the waters rise
and forests drown.
Clouds on the horizon
look beautiful at sundown.

Escapism into poetry happens with me..and thats when I breathe "my life". Poetry is a kind of lifeline when all else seem to go haywire..
