Against the Grain

7/23/17 Here then gone, like poof! Below the floor and above the roof On par, falling behind or ahead of the game Going with or against the grain Getting it wrong and right During the light of day and in the dark of night Still here or evaporated Spoken truly or exaggerated Continually being loved and hated In one location or anywhere on the map In a place so small or space where it's all so vast On the move or still Healthy or ill In the form of a liquid or pill Done incorrectly or with skill Losses and victories Proven or still a mystery Forgotten or a part of history Ending up in first or last place Going at a slow, steady or fast pace
