In search of answers
Babel high
Oceans wide
I forgot about the question
Insatiable and dissatisfied
Then I Heard Me Say
To another supplied
With a better script
Precision Bad Decision
The never enough
Is too much to bear
Sometimes
When Urged to Kneel
Balm for the heart and a
Soothing trope
Movies and CDs
I used to stare at my watch
Seeing how slow a minute arrives
To the next
Working at the moviehouse
You learn things about
How they build up the first 20 minutes
Asking you to invest emotions
To the protagonist
And how he could be you
In a bind
With choices you’d take
The last 20 will always be about How the first act plays out
Against the third
Sevens Away
Fate is a line
You agree to
Knowing the next day it may not be fulfilled
Laid odds on the table
Willfully ignored
Sense of Uncertain Inevitability
My mind sounds a quiet alarm
Racing to some place I wish
I knew where
So I could take it there quicker
Or at least know
The location to find it
Instead of this overwhelming
Sense of losing
And she almost
Mockingly said
I thought you knew what to expect?
As Dust
Specks
Same Time Next Year
….And I thought my job
Was mostly about
Logging in and out
Squeeze a card
To never wishing I’m here
As it turns out
Lost in a Glass of Musk
Numb and irate
The audience laugh in unison
But can’t find reason
To unite
For a cause to save ‘em
We, collectively, not necessarily for the same reason
Just want to be entertained
