We spend our lives from solstice to solstice,

creatures caught in a trap hidden by darkness

stuck in a wheel of fortune spinning in no direction 

in its endless circles we lose our way.

When everything seems too dark
to live your day through doubts that linger,

Instead of walking briskly, I often shuffle:
Watching TV I’ll cough, sniffle and snuffle:
This riles my wife and creates a kerfuffle,
Then flipping channels - her feathers I ruffle!
Such are the things that please me now!

an asylum of hope
where liberation reigns
yet solitude operates
flashing bright lights dictate
serenity caresses designing the scenario with assorted templates
footprints of echoing shadows flicker
the rushing wind swerves, magnifies and flutters
