nothing concluded 93

sitting in the midst
a cloud of confusion
disappearing and reappearing
right before eyes
close each day

no one knows
and he may not be the first
right or wrong
singing some wordless song
all thought

just so happened
to have a pen in hand
give him credit for that
and he won’t need to be
first in line

or last out the door
onto the floor
or out in the back yard
remembering moments
as a child again

listening is the best
teacher (aside from my dad)
anyone can hear
what is said
how many listen

and one day it will all end
six or seven days before
that hoping someone
will tell him what to do then
if not now

right or wrong
just trying to find some sense
in the world spinning
clouds of confusion
and nothing concluded…
