Life's Anvils
Their plunging heels, will pummel down
To try and knot your head
Life's anvils, casting shadowed crowns
To put your hopes to bed
It's manic rain of darkness falls
Along our chosen paths
But we must never stumble
In it's angry fields of wrath
We mustn't stymy in the roads
Or linger like a goatee
Cause if we do, like sitting poo...
We'll pay like Wile Coyote
Depression, angst, and crushing loss
Will try to yield our courses
Below the phantoms' darkened gloss
Unshielded to their forces
But we are poised olympians
Behind the starting line
With jet-propellers to our backs
Our eyes are set, refined
Much knowledged of the challenges
That stagger on the cliffs
Those leathal, subtle hinderances..
We feel their sonic riffs
Toes readied...on the roads of life
We listen for the gunner
Ears keener than a cutting-knife
"Mee-Meep!" cries-out roadrunner

Obstacles
Great analogy Bryce-and lots of positive thought in this one. We have got, and will gain ample knowledge hopefully to steer off any attacks/wrath, and more importantly 'Overcome' all of our problems.
LOved this one
P.s The most comical line 'Cause if we do, like sitting poo' LOL x
Right!..
I read alot of poems about grief and depression on this site, and i'm moved by them because i've been there too. But, I have avoided the clouds of anvils thus far and will continue dodging along the course(hopefully the weather will ease for good). ^ _ ^ BRYCE
Yeah
I can relate to that having had my fair share of it, and i'm sure it'll all be fair weather for you from now on Bryce. Depression-It's a bloody awful thing!
Thanks Debs..

I really ejoyed your poem it made me smile and I haven't done much of that lately
This is Great Bryce!
I like this piece of yours!
if it produces a sound it sounds like...
beating drums played in an arena driving away the fear inside us and allowing us to fly as if we have wings down our heels making us soar the farthest!
