Altered Ego

You stand there like Voltaire with a pen in your hand but that’s not your name and we know it. Nothing’s changed in the diocese the order remains. You are right it is Sunday, a bible or a gun day for some and is the chalice half empty or is it half full? questions that pull me this way or that way when any way out of Sunday is the right way for me. I haven’t woken up properly there’s still sleep in my eyes wherein the proof lies that I live. Did I dream? yes I did of the things that I thought I’d got rid of but like a boot sale in a wild gale these things blow away. Voltaire still stands there with a pen.
