Musetime

Musetime by Odin Roark You are stale Frail And pale Go out Find fresh sight Listen for hidden sound List all you smell beneath the bridge That place where hopelessness abounds Avoid disturbing their sleep Beneath cardboard solace They desperately attempt Acceptance of self While you The writer Have only to observe And absorb Think less Be more Ahhh Absorption comes not easy you say Why would you want to BE that which you absorb? Well my friend I know the question well How many times have you popped that question? Sorry Who am I… Yeah You’ve not been the easiest But Hey I’m still here Unlike you I can’t go anywhere Lest you take me Get it? That’s why I’ll be here When you return I’ve got some letters to prepare Polish up the caps Dust off some lower cases You’ll have some words to create Together Maybe something worthwhile will light up the night Worth a try? You’re disintegrating rapidly You know So… I know Not easy leaving behind your 20’s And you’ve been dragging my sorry ass around for decades But Imagination has deadlines too So Remember Reward doesn’t usually come from staring at stars Comes from Well… Do we have to go over this again? Bye See ya Take your time I’m a bit beat Could use a nap
