Flow Into Your Heart's Glow
Flow into your heart’s serenade
If happiness should glide and slide
Away the lemonade
You struggle to hide in a ride
Into booze or a cruise
Into screams and streams
That pretend not to bruise
Your fragile ego as the steam of dreams
You entertain and maintain
Despite evidence that your last dance
Meant to ascertain your whims to retain
Forays into maybes and buts balance
The reality that the rhythm of ceaseless pursuit
Of stubbornness runs counter
To underlying the suit
You don in your eagerly awaited encounter
With fate in which cry as you may
Catalyzes a conundrum that punishes the procrastination
You prop up at the dismay
Of stakeholders whose destination
Glides away into El Dorado territories
Where unhindered they pan gold nuggets
Despite the absence of factories
That meet exacting targets
Which you fail to meet
In the wake of the uncertainty
Evident in every tweet bereft of wit
You post to drive a wedge between your fiction and stark certainty.
