then there are the days
when he has to go an extra
couple of miles away from
the scene of his life
made up of so many situations
sometimes the music doesn't
fit the mood he can't see how
they thought it would
somehow fix itself
for their sake but
thought has no choice it's there
only choice would be to ignore
how many can say they do
not go far enough
to clear the mind
just far enough
to sweep all the confusion
into one big pile
at least now the day is not
so cluttered thinking
and wishing to be further away
knowing it is not possible
at this time...
eyes cross everything thumps
like a headache approaching
full speed flipping over cars
like a movie star stunt double
take two then pass it on
keep it going and share it
with everyone yes blur then steady
enter dimension ten
if it exists and weathered the storm
rumbling below an immeasurable
amount of weight
stop pause then continue
fix eyes with new colors defined
in a book no one has read
does anyone really need my prayers
or an invitation to join me here
with crossed eyes and circle
the point to stress significance
position matters least of all
the sky always puts on a show
around this time around this neck
nothing hanging down
doesn't mean anything
except time to relax and stretch out
put out the flame burning
differences into minds as negative
differences only reveal positive
eyes cross and that’s all....
