Blindfold
Blindfold
Something bad happens: (just one little thing)
Blindfold snakes over eyes
All colors drain.
A bus leaving running figures in
its wake.
A moment of carelessness,
a mark taken away.
I slump along
not doing; just being
Body wasting away
below, holes up in my head/nest.
Day drags off into another
day.
Something good happens: (just one little thing)
Rip off blindfold
A vivid image light up on mind.
A full meal with friends
A smile direct my way
Seeing chances around every corner
Reach deeper into friendships and passion
Any Thing to stretch my soul
Striving to fill all blanks
from last period.
Day chases another
day.
Something bad happened: (just one little thing)
A cycle circling back
Blindfold on
All ties broken, again
Life is…
Something good
Something bad
