fragrant tug of war
where victory and defeat
eternal stalemates

fragrant tug of war
entwined with thorned promises
lost in the jungle

victory, defeat
e’er poised on a pointed tip
joy, despair wobbles

eternal stalemates
given no choice but to play
bittersweet torment

    I love this postcard too. “given no choice but to play”–that explains a lot of life. (K)
