Blister In the Heart
A blister in the heart
Like walking blindfolded into a minefield
You skirmish and elbow your diligent way
Like a house of cards that collapses
You endure anguish and stitch
If some would erect walls
When the wind of change blows
Keep your soul aloft
Rather set up windmills.
Dispel crippling doubts
Show away deleterious thoughts
Into a devoted scavenger
Rock the Casbah and strut through the grounds.
Woo your grief with quotes,
Solicit your heart for a haunting ballad
Aim high away from your clutter
Never harbor any stifling grudge
Trust your heart even if it skips a beat
Animal trainers' daring is at last explicit
As long as they-in their iron cage -
Are sequestered from human animosity
We will unmistakably all meet our Waterloo
For cure-all pills are defunct and nonexistent
So do whatever floats your boat
As long as it doesn't sink others
Above all,remember it isn't over
Till the fat lady sings
We are all Jock Tamson's Bairns,
On the same boat perpetuate life
You may take my words with a pinch of salt, why not ?
Blisters do pester yet never annihilate,
Vestal virgins easily succumb to temptations,
And do even relapse.......
My son,my alter ego ....
