I’m going there too
Hobbled and broke
Dead in your tracks
The beginning middle and end are all on display –
I look away
There is no escaping these emotions
they were put here for survival
Trickster
We are all going there one by one
Whether spotted or striped massive or miniscule
we thought we could control our story
to be here, to be aware is to know our destiny
Oh, charlatan and chiseler wrestle me
and I won’t hesitate
What once was robust like a mighty river
is now calm, a placid lake
Once a fire roared inside the furnace
now, burned at the stake
Now is your only choice
A thousand tiny now’s
press option one
Don’t allow the smoke
Mirrors
and distant stars
Swindle your now
You
Are
Here
Now.
