Challenge—Ovi Poetry Challenge

My mind’s been twisted in a knot.
Some argue that I haven’t got
a mind to twist and there’s a lot
of screws I’ve lost somewhere.

Some bricks are missing from the load
I carry since they’re hard to hold,
but I’ll still take the narrow road
that leads from here to there.

Matthew 7:13-14 (NKJV)
13 Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. 14Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.

I enjoy walking, poetry and short prose as well as taking pictures with my phone.
