I will give it to you
A rad perspective will do
In a time and place
When we need to contemplate
A new approach
To life
So thank you
I will give it to you
A rad perspective will do
In a time and place
When we need to contemplate
A new approach
To life
So thank you
A push to go up
Further
Than I knew
I could go
Today is a day to go
All the way
Intent set
For the getting
I strum carelessly
Thoughtlessly
Caring me through
The day
Effortlessly
If not for a few chords
What am I
Just another
With an idea or
Two
Floating through
A silky wash
From the waters
That refresh
Recreate
A new opportunity
From here
You and me
Facing our own fears
All the kings’ men
Couldn’t bring back
The country again
As it turns out
It was just us
The average man and woman
That made the whole
World
Whole
Again
Deeply anxious
In so many ways
How can I learn to say
The small ways I have
Grown
In times that require that
We let go
Of what we have known
What we learn
We head back to a time
When the best we can do
Is just wait in our corners
Me and you
A wretched rotten
That’s all I’ve gotten
When there is nowhere else to go
Downtrodden
My mind
Collecting moments
I wish could be forgotten
Today’s memories
All the same
Will be knotted
To the post
In my brain
Ocean groan
Standing still
At the eve of the day
Hoping to hear the new
Moments ahead
But with such a presence
Such a sound
The world is calling out
And it seems
No one is around
Bent on irrational behavior
No delayed last-minute savior
Of people or animals
Mammals
Bent on the frenzy
Of the moment
Don’t know where
This is going
Cuddle in on a wet Texas night
Making a move
Well after the thick twilight
In an evening muse of salutation
Yoga rejected sense of frustration
In a bed
On the road
Somewhere between being lost
And growing old
