Grasping at straws is a good thing If your serving drinks to the Flawless and elite However grasping at straws can become a major flaw as well Like a game of clue That no one ever figures out in the end Although between them all They must have Some sort of clue But With dirty hands it gets hard To hang fresh laundry out to dry Why try? |

What compels us to even try will always be one of the great mysteries of mankind. What compels the deceiver to deceive? What compels the believer to believe? What compels the lover to love? Strength? Desire? Madness? Weakness? I have my opinions but they, are just my own graspings I am sure. |

Yes I was definitely reaching here. Grasping at straws is all just part of the aftermath of madness mixed with all those other things. |

The ending made me think of having been through regretful times and trying to start over while not having shaken off the past yet. Perhaps we should be "washing our hands" first? Either way that question of why will still show itself. Enjoyed! "I know this love will tear me to pieces |
