Off Key
cat't seem to
just can't quite seem to
get it together today.
bodies fill my eyes
where spirits used to shine.
somehow personalities
have given way
to the shape of behinds.
cycles of Karma and Grace
spin in and out of my thoughts
but never seem to connect to now.
'focus' and 'cope' are words
i don't understand, even as i recall them.
as best as i can remember
coping at a time like this
just involves waiting it out
which doesn't help a bit.
i think i'll go make love to Rose
and shut the computer off awhile
and i'll drift until the dust settles
and i can see what wheel
i'm on the down stroke of...
the down stroke of....
