A Slippery Slope


Rash decisions
With no rational thought
Can cloud sunny visions
And cause much distraught

A dangerous course
This slippery slope
It can lead to remorse
With small cause for hope

Slippery slopes we best do without
They render visions, fuzz-ily shrouded
And cause well-being, beyond any doubt
To be slippery-sloper-ly clouded

When we fall on our behinds from those slippery slopes all we can do is get back up, wipe off the seat of our pants, and promise ourselves that we'll be more diligent and watch out for that black ice next time.

Enjoyable verses from you, as always. Keep 'em coming.

I've been on a slippery slope or two, and appreciate this a lot. But your slippery slope, Stan, looks more like a Slip n Slide, and I say—enjoy the ride!
