The flailing arms of fortune

by Lex la Dezerti - Leo - Not entered

the flailing arms of fortune caught me
     clumsy and akward in their dance
     death by life and truth by chance

sailing the passengers of the powers that be
     dancing still their clumsy dance
     caught in the clutches of circumstance

tossed upon a stormy tormented sea
     impaled soon by sword or lance
     and caught in the fate of the lord of dance

climbing and falling from a spiritual tree
     superstitous in their dance
     death by life and truth by chance

Reason for writing:

    None given
