Something's been bugging me
For years now,
A poking feeling
In my mind, and
Between my shoulders,
Like someone trying
To get my attention;
At the same time
There is a sense
That my life
Is ill-spent
In meaningless pursuits.
What is this calling
That is driving me slowly
Toward madness?
I am not
A people person
Nor even overly religious,
Yet could it be
That I am being led
To use my talents
For the greater good?
How would I know?
Who could I ask
Without seeming
A total nut case?
A puzzle, to be sure,
Requiring much more thought
And prayer.
