Paradox
A Limericked Shred on Seeing Red
A diagnosis, though it mocks -
When tests reveal
They cannot heal,
It's time to pray for paradox.
Responsibilities unmet,
Though juggled, still remain a threat.
We twitter still
Against our will
And hope the answer changes yet.
Appointments canceled and deferred,
While we await affirming word,
The promise waits
At Heaven's gates,
And victory has yet occurred.
In olden times, discoveries
Were heralded on bended knees.
From outset's call,
Amid the squall,
The faithful would their cares release.
What wonders, worth much more than gold,
We often miss, as we withhold -
Why cling to fate?
Let's celebrate
To see a miracle unfold.
