Goose On the Loose, Chased
What flips, then flops
What comes in, goes astray
Control is ephemeral
Stability is fraught
For tethers taught
Cannot keep on hold
The obsessive need for change.
You can't stop progress!
Moving on is long gone
Perhaps you missed the train?
See what you missed
With head turned back,
A gaggle of opportunities
Wobbled on by,
Goose on the loose, chased.
