(no subject)
revised and hopefully finished poem. any opinions?
dance baby
bring it back to the roots, baby
kick off your shoes, baby
sing while you move, baby
it doesn't take long-
just a moment,
time wasted, always gone
(doesn't matter, we move on.)
bring it back to the beat, baby
do what you gotta do, baby
scream if it makes it better
laugh, cry, or hold it all in-
doesn't matter, time doesn't care
keep it in, pull out your hair...
sit on a chair in the road,
relax, take off a load.
but I'm really in the car, by the canals.
I love the water
filled with big machines
like the ice cream on my root beer float
the sweetness spilled on the dashboard
life is full of bumpy roads
and the paper you bare it all to
it's not so easy
but it can't be that hard
bring it back to the point
diversions, distractions-
dance if it makes it better,
no one has to understand.
just live, baby, breathe, baby
hide in your bed, baby
cry without your eyes, baby
it doesn't matter.
it just doesn't matter.
k.s.
