Sunny side up
She rolled down the car window,
and glided her hand through the air.
carefree calm,was always the most attractive part of her outlook.
Let's make light of our inadequacies,
Bumble bee.
Let's not scare each other to death,with everything we need.
I blame all these commercials,
for your rainbow colored hair,
and your fixated stair,
bent on magnifying me out of proportion.
I point the finger,
at these relentless assaults,
on our common sense.
Telling us what we want,and what were not.
In simpler times
I would have been just right.
Now all u can see
Is what I haven't been.
This long silence,
is taking u away from me.
I watch these creatures of the night
Crawling from the bushes
On their way to take flight
I watch them leave
For a sandy beach oasis
A mirage
that Springs up in a derelict building.
Where everyone is on vacation
Stretched out and glazed over.
Imaginary, sun bathing.
Theirs too many secrets here
With so many people turning their heads to look the other way
I guess we all find solace
As best we can.
Some run
Some deny
Some plan.
