Never far behind…looming there. They wait.
One moment of vulnerability is the key that
Opens Pandora’s Box,
And my life is theirs for the taking.
Relentless and unmerciful, they stalk me.
Greedy and never satisfied, they take
Everything-and come back for more.
There is no outsmarting them.
No pleading with them.
They gain momentum as they plunder and are
Energized by their destruction.
Oh, gifts of Divine Wisdom, hiding in this
Annihilation!
Find me.
