There Was a Sign Once Upon a Time

i come around
ignorance is the educator
i see new things
blinking blinders was once eliminators

there was a sign once upon a time
the words changed my life for the good and for the better
the central theme had to do with mind expansion
it really brought things back home to the roots of me
re-reminded of my dusty, rusty dreams
i pack a few suitcases and drive myself somewhere
what i discovered was i kept myself from
i had to admit that the enabler was me
i gave myself an intervention for the ages
like a punch in the eye, i felt the pain
like a true wake up call, i finally used my brain
actually enjoying life returned me back to sane
i must admit with each tear....it's so good to be back here....
