an unknown force
magnetises us
moving ever onward
is it fate or
a wish to see into
the shadows
methinks it is
the human foible
...curiosity

Thank You!!
Thank You for Your entry: Curiosity
This piece tugged hard at Spirit and while I was reading which I did several times~ I kept being shown a cat- looks like a tan colored one but for some reason was hearing the word: Tabby
I'm being shown a garage and like a male looking underneath something for a tool lost- it looks like he is peering underneath a cabinet...like one of his work stations- and for some given the word: Cabaret; seeing tap shoes- I read again and was being shown a man like walking on the side of the road with a gas can in his hand~ whether metaphor or symbolism...I'm seeing like the desert mirage behind him...
a haze from the heat-He is just walking on the side of the road
And strange as it sounds...I'm being shown a pineapple- not cut but the actual pineapple...it is being held up like ...to take notice of it
Hopefully that makes some sense
Powerful images You have brought forth
These words grabbed and pulled~
is it fate or
a wish to see into
the shadows
Unique Voice spoken~
Thank You for sharing Your Heart also Spirit!
Best wishes to You in the contest Sweet Soul
**Judging will be done shortly...
Many blessings too
and much love & light~ Desire~*~

Oh yeah we are a curious bunch of mankind peoples....wanting to know how things work or what is on the other side of the door....even if it comes back to bite us...knowledge is a power and perhaps it is knowledge which will help us to survive into the future if we dont first blow up the world.
Excellent take on the prompt...good luck in this contest.

Me thinks so too! Sometimes it pays to be curious and other times not! Sometimes we should just leave well enough alone! But, being human we can't! ~Sie
