I think it's rather funny
I think it's quite a joke
the twisted turns of words of honey
the way you prodded and poked

I think it is quite funny
rather quite unreal
chasing the wise bunny
round the rabbits wheel

and don't you think it is ironic
like tossing a two sided coin
head's up now you know
that tails never win

going through the motions
another page torn from the past
living in a dream filled castle
chasing dreams that never last

Yes, Angel4aKing, that is the way it is in far too many cases. Sad to say I resembled the other part of this poem in those two lost decades. You spoke with clarity and your words were riveting.
