Wither the Zax

 

Another week passed
as the two stubborn Zax
continued to dig in
refusing to budge
from their intransigent positions

To these hyper creatures

of rock headed consistency

compromise is a four letter word

Days turned to weeks

while weeks bleed into years

as the pendulum of time

marches to it's steady

relentless beat

Life moved on 

without the steadfast pair
just as it is designed to do

Evolution of the species

eventually
left the poor zealots behind

Now virtually extinct

trench warfare prisoners
of tragically closed minds
