Shiftless Insanity

I'll take some time to dance with my demons. I'll take some time to speak with my angels. I'll take some time to think for myself. I'll take the time to fulfill their requests. Then, I'll shiftlessly shift through memories of times past; Unlock corridors and peek through mirrors; Hoping to find the clearer message, that was once written, just for me; Because in reverse contexts, it will surely make sense. But to no end, I bend, to see under thrice turned stones and still come out empty handed. Trice with might, I'll break through deadbolt doors for a glimpse; Just to make sure my skeletons are still in their rightful places; Before I lock them away once again, to rattle in their own disgraces. Then, I'll take some time to dance with my demons. I'll take some time to speak with my angels. I'll take some time to think for myself. I'll take the time to fulfill their requests. Then I'll continue to search for the rest.
