Broken Clocks

I’m once again in a block
Nothing to do with political shock

That was not such a surprise 
As USA has evil influence and lies

No for me it’s a lack of passion
I’m becoming more old fashioned 

Bored with the new stuff of the day
Finding comfort in familiar place

Is it better looking back than ahead
Do we misrepresent fact in head

When a butterfly has fallen from grace
Is it not still beautiful in its own way

So happy hearts learn to adapt
To hear the lark ignore the crap

To lift your heart up towards light
To walk by faith not by sight

I’m uninspired but still at peace
For even broken clocks tell time you see

My inner clock knows time is a short
Not all have time but all need the lord

This resonates with me, Karen. I too find myself more passionate abot times gone by than the sniveling-driveling-media-infused-swiveling of today!

Hi Karen, even broken clocks are right twice a day. In these troubled times we need the lord more than ever.
