so busy studying
Cracks and lines
Spelt break incorrectly
By avoiding i actually got
Caught in my
Own trap
What was I thinking
Oops I wasnt

The soapy hands
The careful wash
No happy birtday song
Replaced by Glory Be to the Father
Carefully wash hands
While deep in thought
The longer the better
Prayed before Corona
Continuing to practice
Just noticed
Since when did  I stop
Glory Be to the Father
Did I get lax?
NOW.....
Is not the time !
Be my poem

I will be your rhythm

Be my music

I will be your melody

Be my drama

I will be your dialogue

Be my wind

          And let me be your kite



Be my star

I will be your twinkles

Be my sun

I will be your heat

Be my moon

I will be your beams

Be my wind

          And let me be your kite



Be my snail

I will be your shell

Be my bee

I will be your sting

Be my zebra

I will be your stripes

Be my wind

        And let me be your kite



Be my heart

I will be your beats

Be my river

I will be your waters

Be my bones

I will be your marrow

Be my wind

           And let me be your kite



Be my sleep

I will be your dream

Be my arms

I will be your strength

Be my wings

I will be your flight

Be my wind

            And let me be your kite
Be you black
Be you white
We are all one

Be you pink
Be you  brown
We are all one

Man is man
No matter his colour
No matter his tongue

Riding walking running  biking
Put your mask on
Not just for you
But for me and the world
Traveling near traveling far
Stirring up dust
Walking the straight and narrow.
Put your mask on
Heigh ** Silver
Their will be a silver lining

My eyes look
And all i can do is see
The demon sits on my chest
It plays with my hair
As tears roll
My brain wonders whats happening
My mind screams
But my mouth doesnt even open
My arms want to flail
But i can barely feel them
So im stuck
With a demon on my chest
And tears in my ears
Then i close my eyes
i can’t bare this anymore
Then i jump awake
And the demon is gone
I can move my limbs
And then i start to sob
i cant sleep anymore
This happened to me last night. It was down right mortifying.
