FEELING THE FOCUS
When you peer into their eyes are they gleaming or scheming
Awaiting the finality,heavy iron, stamping steel, dealt or dealing
Making a decision,fast ,faster or grinding slowly maybe revealing
still part of the cast,recessed but present ,grey but with feeling
The highlight of the day ,enlightenment is a chuckle from a box
A pin ***** will reveal rising or falling,encryption awaiting a description
Daily dose no longer measured in cups or cans ,now with capsules milligrams ,c.c.'s & shots
Far flung adventures simply ignored ,gains we made repaid in pain,life's chapters awaiting a final edition
Call from the hall is it final? mark another minute ,muse from the news appearing more & more like robots
Still daily fun can be found as we dilly dally listening to silly sally, our grin has become the new ammunition
List from a bucket now turned into a tale from a pail,less attention paid to flowcharts
Daily thought more passive replacing anxious or fraught,most matters taking on a new definition
Today time is quickly lost, move forward at all cost, no time for a recount,luckily we've paid the price now with knowledge to hurdle new roadblocks.R.C.
Is a bit light considering, but do we stop all LIFE and write our own eulogy
or make sure others remember how we LIVED!
