Hugging the Cool

Tap dance through life if you must munch all the gum drops that it offers paint a million roses on misty mirrors denial always tap-taps along rainbows but never roots the truth from darkness. You frolic in waters different than mine a fantasy stream always half smiling what you call living life to the fullest is really a life filled with half a shine- Most everyday my heart is eclipsed as I sip the brackish waters of truth for it's the only cure for societal blindness but I don't like ugly anymore than you do- I prefer slogging slowly through thorn and grist while you tap tap a path of fools gold and petal but when life closes the blackest of curtains we'll be hugging the same cool breast of death- 5/31/20 Craig Sponsor Hugs contest
