| Ants walking all over my brain |
Somehow things feel different today,
maybe the day is different, maybe I am,
I don't feel poetic but I do feel prolific,
and specific, maybe not as quick, but slick,
I met a schmuck, and he got me stuck in a muck, that schmuck
what can I call it, rotten luck?
Anyway, my works are gummed,
I feel bummed, and this whole situation was rummy from the start,
like a festering wart, but what can I say,
I'm a sucker for sad stories, sharing others' worries.
Its the achilles heel of my life.
But not to be undone, here I went,
hellbent on getting my mind so spent,
that I would have to relent to sleep and forget the whole thing.
At my haunt, amethyst, the scene of this glorious crime against crime,
the time had come, to put the salt to the lime and climb outta the tequila bottle!!
A chamomile tea and sandwich is all it took,
to settle my harried mind, to loosen that mental bind,
enough to let me breathe a little easier.
Felt good to soak the sun's radiant warmth,
while listening to sounds I missed for so long;
the sound of parrots winging it from branch to branch,
and the glorious sight of cats making that launch from trees to earth,
to revel in nature's lap, for just a while.
Gaia, she made me beautiful, she made me intelligent,
I miss being in her heart, walking with her like I used to,
those years of playing hide-n-seek with her among the banyan trees,
chasing the rabbits across the plush green grassy gardens,
blowing fog rings in the early morning with mist wetting my nose.
The memories are fresh like yesterday in my mind,
if I didn't have their kind, I would have not survived this insane world.
It changed somehow, today was different,
maybe it was me, or maybe it was the giant rubber band ball!!!
