Inside the shadow's shadow

Guess who called in sick today
Once again, forgot his importance.
Forgot to help the others...
I'm feeling selfish for feeling
Good.

Guess who called in sick again
For the third month in a row,
Left souls without his fire and flame
Dancing in their eyes.

Guess who called in sick this year
And who was left to find a way
Without the missing link inside...
No flame to light the fire
No waves to lick the sand
No wind to dance in the leaves.

Guess who called in sick once more
And left this soul cold and tired...

Call it God, Goddess, or Jesus Christ....

Inspiration called in sick today.

I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man.

Very sad, yet beautifully said, Koko.

smiles, liked this a lot, but I betcha if you look really hard, she's, he's or someone is there....I don't believe what they say, when they utter, "The lights are on but nobody's home"  

Good good write and images.  Thank you

as far
as the hunt
for best friends go
i've trod the path
and walked the road
but i know at last
my journey's through
i want no more
i found you

love you babe!
