Ironic Mix

# Ironic mix
I’ve come to find
The truth is tart
Creative mind
Demanding heart

Busy brain
Starting fires
Fail to tame
Hotter, higher 

Quick to grow
Quick to spread
Look out below
Look up ahead

Focus, focus!
Pay attention
Efforts, hopeless
Back to wishing

A lovely curse
Ugly blessing
Pleasure hurts
Joy suppressing 

Ironic mix
In the blender
Fail to fix
Return to sender
