2.5158 : 6/17/19 : Props

Do it with props
run till it pops
running around
track down the sound
I don't like
the pattern
so I'll
simply change
somewhere round
the 7 year bend
it sure got strange
and I guess I've
recovered
but a darkness
persists
and the
offramp is
hidden in the mists

way back along

And that wraps up the Songs of Days volume 2.24: Do I Dare Disturb the Universe? We'll just move it right along to Volume 2.25, entitled Such Stuff As Dreams.

2.5157 : 6/16/19 : One Foot Out the Door

I threw it out
wayback along
not to say
it was ever not wrong
nobody had
to give me the talk
when do I get to walk
one foot out the door
one in the bear trap
I was sleep walking
never heard the snap
stationary target
easy to knock me down a peg
but I might just get along
Once I gnaw off that leg

2.5156 : 6/15/19 : Time Has Passed

Time has passed
that's something
holy hell
it's galling
if I cared
I'd be livid
the contrast baby
it's vivid

2.5155 : 6/14/19 : So Hard

This shouldn't be so hard
straighten up lay a card
get in the slim percent
where all the gurus went
where all the swamis fled
all canon in your head
Old enough now to calcify
I hope as a stand up guy
So hard to ignore the news
Go dark while the dark age brews

2.5154 : 6/13/19 : Shut It

I should know better
I should shut it
be a go getter
when it gets tough
gut it
just be a winner
stop complaining
stop protesting
stop explaining

what

2.5153 : 6/12/19 : The Gateway

The gateway of
everything that ever was
trips so lightly
off the tongue
really we're
in a deep well
at the far end
a sparse bead strung
is this a saga
or a tuba solo
incompetently played
by a dumb fool
would you really want to
Call up the gateway
probably wipe me out
but hey it will look cool

what

2.5152 : 6/11/19 : Disturb

Hilarious
do I dare disturb
like the universe
would notice
me kicking the curb
hanging
griping
nothing but talk
should only meditate
and take a walk
watch the plate and fork
mind the refurb
and don't bother to worry
what I might disturb

2.5151 : 6/10/19 : Cobble

Call halt
due to time
spent cobbling
story of decades
in theory I'm hobbling
to some finish
better left
undescribed
some unlabeled
potion
better left unimbibed

2.5150 : 6/9/19 : Placebo

Take the placebo
guessing the affliction
is mostly in the mind
like anxiety, addiction
like mortal fear
the apprehension to save
a world unaware of me
Why rant why rave
just take the placebo
and get at the task
well it feels real enough
if you have to ask
