The Parody
And melody
Lines define the waiting time,
No clues to the end of queues,
And I feel its surreal,
As we pay our dues.
I cannot see or feel you.
You linger in the air,
You have a name, but it’s a shame,
I hardly ever dare.
I stay at home all alone,
Don’t wander at my will,
I miss the bliss of your kiss.
There is no magic pill.
I prefer to defer,
The existential effect,
The parody and melody,
Thoughts I can’t reject.
It’s time to turn the tables,
Attitudes toward alchemy,
Time to transform thinking,
Creatively.
The lateral and collateral,
The cause and consequence,
Doing what comes easily,
down to my common sense
Living in the moment,
Mitigating fear,
Holding close to what is the most,
I am keeping my mind clear.
Kindness and consideration,
Lending a helping hand,
Minding mother nature,
in for a soft landing
