YOU OF SOUND MIND

Your world is never bleak and drab
no fickle thoughts.

I heard you chastising,
chasing something within/without me.

I stood firm, not flat on my back
held up by your traction of sorts.

You hadn't fumble for a star leader -
I was never plunged to darkness,
never felt picked upon.

For the saucy moon you know, buffers me -
You'd seen me looking up, smiling.

The fluorescence of the moon as disco ball,
You saw me dancing to my own music.
