Who Cares (?)
Fluttering ‘round sustained unrest
Ideas, words derived in jest
In effort to become the best
A rock, a hard place; be ‘tween pressed
This spoiled sport, demanding all
More counter ticks or else forestall
As stories go, to thwart the call
And whisper screams, true criminal
Dancing digits fill up the screen
For most, the shape is too obscene
What happens when we dare to dream?
Confused and careless, so it’d seem
Tenuous hold, hair’s breadth from crazy
Beliefs begin reflecting hazy
Fruitless search translates too phrasey
Branch to flake takes shape as lazy
So let it pass, those thoughts that snare
Tend to the heart what’s laying bare
Spun in a web, ready to share
The beat that moves us all to care
