There's

There's this vision of peace
roaming around in my head
it settles in sometimes, until
something happens and I'm led
back to this doubt...about
everything, everyone, the whole world!
why can't the peace stay in place?
why does the comfortable carpet unfurl?
shredded a thread at a time
under my feet
even when I try so hard to keep
it complete
the rug gets pulled, or
here I am, trying to steer or stand
and along comes something
knocking my hand
off the wheel
and it's making me mad!
I'd rather keep
some peace

  • someone asked me the other day how I'm holding up
    and i asked 'em, "what? do you mean with all the stuff going on?"
    and she said, "yeah"

    and I said, "it's like surfing... someday I'll hit land"

    but, then I got to thinking about entropy. the universes' tendency toward disorder. i think hitting land means dying, and I'm not actually ready to do anything like that just yet.

    i think the same applies to your pull-thread rug... all you can do is become a skilled pull-thread rug rider.


    cowabunga, dude :D
