Conundrum of earth, fire of blueIn the coconuts that are in eachPlace I see the nest so bareAnd from here the grass is sweetAnd I smell the lilacs bleedA remorse so dull and demurely downI can't help but pulse and think twiceThat today I lived and did not dieSo why does it seem like such a failureWhy is there a trap beneath my feet?And lets me fall once and againBut alas! Thou sound and evermoreI lived and cherish it quite surprisedIt was not wronged yet un-prevailedTomorrow brings birds and a chirpYet I look in the past,  sad past Stopping the future in its wakeSo proceed with caution drearilyAnd I continue life quite merrily Written August 1st, 2001 © on Aug 24 2001 09:47 AM PST   0 • 1
