Nicolas Poussins' pastoral landscape "Et In Arcadia Ego", 1640.

Vanishing Point Off in the distance, just out of sight. Lies my destination, in the dim light. There's fire in my loins with will in my might, That I might get there, before the dark night. So I press on the accelerator and hold on tight, And lose the encumbrances that hold me back. To outrun my rivals, on the left and the right. I sense that they're gaining, on the attack. But I don't see them, it�s just that they lack, The skill and the power with which I fly. Into the vanishing point in the night sky. But will I get there, � before I die? Copyright 2004 � Ronald W.

This is great. But it makes me think
of all the 'paras' & 'quads' I worked
with at a rehab center. Most were guys
25 & under who had thought that if they
could make a car or motorcycle go fast
enough. . .you get my drift. Not that I blamed them. Age
had a great deal to do with it. Our
competitive society? Don't think you
meant to bring this to mind, but. . .it
shows how powerful the piece is. Thanks,
'Pea' <3

You depict a very intense set of circumstances, with rivals gaining ground. Hold fast Ron, stay the course,you'll get there. Excellent dynamic write...
