For Lack of a Better Reason

This mind is so beautifully filled

Dreams and dancing phantoms in day

Overlapping the world and carrying on

Overlapping the world and all play

Some florid and flamboyant show

A show to enlighten and entertain

Twirls and tumbles and fireworks

Infinite routines synchronize for the refrain

Heard in the rhythmic swells of silence

So often heard by those sitting in it

Too busy listening to watch the show

Far too busy to take the free ticket
