A constant polish of redundant routine.
Scrubbing the scabs until they are clean.
Mechanical motions of life mundane.
Déjà vu, no thank you, it all sounds the same.
Unavoidable duty pushes my plight.
It follows me on inescapable flights.
Under palm trees and thatched huts.
Nursing dependants and avoiding ruts.
Its not all bad but it is all the same.
Laughable moments left heavy with pain.
Unquestionable questions from embryonic beaks.
Filling with air and plugging the leaks.
Disconnected and interjected.
Try and try to be rejected.
Flecks of sparkle in the air.
Had you forgotten there were stars out there?
Lost in this strange unlivable life.
Cutting mediocrity with a borrowed knife.
Homeless home and helpless state.
Sugar in the raw with soggy cornflakes.
I know it all, for myself that’s true.
Now how do I get through me to you.
And you and you and her and him too.
I can cut all the cords but two.
Defied by doubt and homesteads song.
Searching for safety but lost for so long.
Lucky to have all I have but the truth?
I'm chasing fairies and the comforts of youth.
Big thoughts tortured by reality.
Imagined life of uncertainty.
Then a childs song reminds the heart.
To do what you're doing and play the part.
Attacked in my mind and doubting myself.
Pick carefully your trust from the dusty shelf.
If it's so and I am, then fuck em all.
When were they here? I don't recall.
