slippery slope

 
 
 
Treacherous downhill ride
You seek the slip and slide
Plummeting down the slippery slope
Shot out of the cannon of hope
Hold on, baby, here comes the edge
You may as well be jumping off a ledge

Slope.....slippery and so slick
All this frozen emotion makin' me sick
You seek the thrill of adrenaline
Just about the time I need to go still again
It's cool, we roll in ways dissimilar
We are who we are, ain't nothin criminal
I'll be here, deep in the black darkness of meditation
You'll be high in the white starkness of elevation
Soon to sing dirges to our love's death
Yet, it hangs suspended... flash frozen as winter's breath
 
Perhaps one day, we will meet in the elusive middle
We may, one day, solve our life long riddle
 
What do you get when you blend a thrill seeker
With a tree huggin' peace keeper?
A slippery slope
And..... frozen hope
You, in your perpetual downhill race
Me, in meditation......... resting in place
