(370)▪︎[ Too Dense … 4•14•2020 ]

[ Where Does Your Mind Go, When Your Body Falls Asleep ]
[ Does Your Mind Tell Your Mouth ]
[ To Not Make A Peep? ]

[ With All Of These Days Of Continuous Isolation ]
[ Do You Feel The Desolation? ]

[ Is There Confusion? ]
[ Or Is There Delusion? ]

[ What To Do, What To Do, With All Of This Free Time? ]
[ I Will Spend It All ]
[ Writing Rhyme After Rhyme ]
[ Not Making A Call ]
[ Just To Drop A Dime ]

[ Not All The Stories Are Worth Repeating ]
[ Don’t Turn Those Attempts ]
[ Into A Psychological Beating ]

[ But Where Does Your Mind Go ]
[ When Things Are Slow? ]
[ Do You Ever Know? ]

[ When My Mind Checks Out? ]
[ I Wonder ( WHAT’s THAT ALL ABOUT? ) ]

[ I Can Never Get An Answer That Makes Sense ]
[ Maybe I’m Too Dense ]
[ Or Others Don’t Want Me To Know What
Happens On That Side Of The Fence ]

[ So I Can Understand ]
[ The Demand ]

(373)▪︎[ Thinking … 4•29•2021 ]

[ Are Your Memories Full Of Mistakes That Were Made? ]
[ Or Lessons Learned? ]
[ Would You Always Trade ]
[ Back In ]
[ The Mistakes That Caused You Concern? ]

[ Are The Lessons Learned Always Because Of The
     Mistakes You Make? ]
[ Can You Magically Make A Pie? ]
[ After You Tried To Make A Cake? ]

[ The Knowledge That Mistakes Bring ]
[ Are Not Tied Together By Strings ]

[ You Try Your Hardest To Not Make The Same Mistakes
     Twice ]
[ Not Burning Your Hand On A Hot Stove Again ]
[ Would Be Really Nice ]

[ Sometimes My Mistakes Make Their Way Into My Dreams ]
[ I Have No Control Of That It Seems ]

[ Everyday I Wind Around Life’s Potholes ]
[ Many Times ]
[ I Have Questioned My Roles ]

[ Of What I’m Supposed To Be ]
[ In Today’s Fractious Society ]

[ Do I Wear Many Hats, Or Just Concentrate On A Few? ]
[ I Don’t Have The Heart Or Energy ]
[ To Take On Anything New ]
[ I Never Want To Shift The Spotlight On Me ]
[ So Others Can Taunt ( OH BOO HOO ) ]

[ I Don’t Believe In Pity Parties, So You Could Sit In The
     Corner & Pout ]
[ I Thoroughly Believe In Working Things Out ]
[ Then I Can Fall Asleep With No Nagging Doubts ]

~ The End ~
