I’m tumbling Revolving Bouncing Down and Up But, Also From Side. To. Side Stubbornly holding on to Somesortofmissplacedpride I’m playing a game Where you seek And I Hide From views that should not Survive. The black dog Curiously makes itself Known Joining me in this place called Home. It licks my face And nudges with a blunt Force It digs into my brain And devours the red sauce. It throws me in the air like a seal With a ball It then refuses to answer my call. It leaves muddy footprints And A trail That is long And sometimes wide It sneaks into The kennel that is in my brain It digs in And devours the red sauce. It throws me in the air like a seal With a ball It then refuses to answer my call. It leaves muddy footprints And A trail That is long And sometimes wide It sneaks into The kennel that is my heart. For I am not the marrow inside a succulent cage that is twisted with an inner rage. But when it does give me a reprieve? I feel like I have been deceived. For its anxiety That flows through my veins And maybe something else that gives me pains Life can be strange As you can still Be isolated When you are running with a crowd. You’re behind me - I know But for now I will only let your shadow watch Like the Spectre it is Trying to stay one step ahead For really it is Nothing but An Iron will For survival That makes Embers glow. I’m tumbling Revolving Bouncing Down and Up But, Also From Side. To. Side Stubbornly holding on to Somesortofmissplacedpride I’m playing a game Where you seek And I Hide From views that should not Survive. The black dog Curiously makes itself Known Joining me in this place called Home. It digs for dirt And bone And all I want to do is Shout - Leave Me Alone! It licks my face And nudges with a blunt Force
