Lead / words / 2011 / Air

June 26, 2011

What is this life I lead.
		Is it a disease.
			A second ease.
			Slowly.
			Slowly.
		Patience is a virtue.
			Yes.
	Have I made a monster out of this?
		A rubbing of the chaos.
		First step.
		Let us begin.
			It’s something of an underbelly.
		A fatboy in disguise.
			Running after his demise.
			He wishes his wisdom
			Buried in broken tides.
				There are spirits in these
					Trees.
				Not just you.
				Not just me.
			Let us breathe this air.
			This author-ity.
		Summon suspect.  Resurrect.
		These liars and fools.
		Pulled and controlled 
by their muse.
		Wave your gold goodbye.
		Some sly eye.
			Misguide.
			Misstep.
			Redirect.
		You might be praising a prospect.
		Keep some semblance.
		A providence.
		Malevolence.
	There’s an engine in the background.
		Something’s shut down.
 		There’s a presence.
		An effervescence.
			A permeation.	
			Across your fluxation.
			A treasure trove.
			Mixation across your 
				Appreciation.
				I wish your fixation
				Could cause sensation
			Happenstance
			Dim relation.
				Are you in a trance?
			Brother, please, let’s break this dance!
