Hey You up there somewhere in air don’t put me on a throne then watch me fall from grace as if you really cared what happens on the ground. This is my production, my own free-will debut. and you a mere bit-player who one time bowed and left the stage of happiness. I’m busy with a follow-up or an overdue re-write and the feel of you in mind confines me back in time like a prisoner behind bars of wishes, hopes, desires. I have no need of “ordinary” but when you turn my smile into tears from my eyes you’ve overstepped the line between the here and there. You went and you left, you disappeared, you’re gone, departed, vanished, moved on, and, in simple terms, not here so don’t tell me that you care, when you can’t support my chair. Air, space, sky, mind, good heavens - you’re everywhere but not where it matters down here on the ground. Next time I call your name don’t turn me inside out! |

I'm inclined to write out my dreams - sometimes not such a good thing and I do sincerely apologise for "giving vent". |
