Watching, waiting, frustrated with debating.
Slim chances, fast dances, over-rated TV romances.
Quick fix, slap stick, who can tell what makes you tick?
Caring, sharing, no room for daring.
Confusion, illusion, haven't found a good conclusion.
Distraction, subtraction, I can't get no . . .
Using Calgary as a backdrop the author satirizes the self-serving nature of the public as it continues to fatten itself, not only physically, but egotistically as well.
This collection of poetry addresses the nature of time, reflections on the natural world, the difficulty of loss,
contemporary social issues and gratitude for life.
