Memoranda

Proverbs 17:10 

10 A rebuke makes a greater impression on a discerning person
than a hundred blows on a fool.

 

A picture is worth a thousand words

 

Memo

 

Pictures bring back memories … glimpses of sorts

Vivid impressions that never lost the source

Slightly covered edges to trigger imagination

But all in all reality as it runs its timely course

 

Deep within our structure memory resides

How it computes for sure is everyone’s guess

Seldom it represents what I want to know

For that part develops through habits at best

 

Is it a picture or a thought that triggers a moment of recall?

Maybe it does take both together to makes sense of it all

What part plays the heart in the freedom of being caught?

Is it somehow for the better as inside the vision is sought?

 

Freedom of expression is that only one’s own right?

To simply address within what without can’t understand

Continuous conclusions as feelings are protecting the pride

That is waiting to be the kingpin with just a lousy hand
