Stuck in the quagmire of then and now…
letting it unfold… letting it untwine
there was, there is… there’s now
and in between… so many bits and bobs
tied together
forever more.
Or can they dance alone?
So much to do… to be
to become
so many dreams, ideas, wishes
we’re born and we die.
We lust, we seek… we hunger
for what?
Remains in the shadows.
Unknown, forgotten…
where will I find it?
Will I ever know?
The plan held so secretly….
no eyes to distinguish
all muddled together.
Sounds familiar
vibrations rub against my skin
I know them
but can’t see them
the light languishes
the drum beat distant
but familiar all the same.
I’ve been here before…
it’s buried deep
deeper than I want to go.
No point stirring ghosts
long wished left behind.
But of course they never go…
locked inside for eternity.
You just do the best you can
especially when you’re alien.
Where do I belong… not sure
all seems strange and different.
Outcast… from the tribe
means certain death
memories tumble
head over butt
who needs a TV
when so much happening inside.
Dig a little deeper… down beyond the silt and mud
a light distant but glowing
knows your name
calls you
Oh god… you long to go home…
to be with love forever more.
No-one said it was going to be easy
that’s why we were given muscles
sloppy or strong… makes no sense
just like this
and the world around me.
It’s all a giant puzzle…
and I’m running out of time
I set out to find the answers to it all
will I succeed…
well, only partially.
Was it all worth it?
Of course.
Love to you on Mad Mercury – Make No Sense (unless it does) – Day
