Recognised Performance To Applaud
Life can only be understood backwards and yet we must live it forwards.
Such a confusing analogy that could leave your head spinning relentlessly crazy.
And yet our desperation to resolve the riddles that plague us on every occasion,
Can merge appearance and reality, into a mist that seems a kind of hazy.
We cannot change upon reflection and regrets are a waste of time.
Yet lessons can be learnt if contemplating honestly what has resulted in this space.
Prevention a cure, not always an option considering the trials and tribulations,
Incredulous variations hurled at a mind-boggling alarming pace.
So with all the reverse psychology comes procrastination of course,
Another futile action that produces no positive results for one and all.
And yet our desperation to fix what we perceive as broken form words not actions,
That bring us this reoccurring turmoil resulting in this consequential catastrophic fall.
And so I wonder is there any point in attempting to comprehend our circumstances,
When our perspective on the analogy is without doubt, twisted and selfishly flawed.
Maybe this adventure is not for us to question or fathom its underlining reason,
But an invitation to play, not our need for a recognised performance to applaud
