(A song about futility)

Lately My cell phone by my bed Despite my aching head Just in case you call Like so many times before My throbbing skull Cannot comprehend The stark reality That you never will Fear is a demon I’m as sick as my secrets Today I conquered fear Your demon flees me now I’m done with false hope Definitely At the end of my rope Such passionate poetry Flowing words of depth Bouncing off indifference Wasted on hypocrisy How foolish of me girl What the hell was I thinking? As if I were drinking But far too late to sober up Dancing in the moonlight Dreaming by the fire Humanity So selfish Driven by desire It’s not about the money Success No power trips My soul seeks completion I need a safe place to hide Sacred asylum Void of plasticity Futility Pantomime humility No coincidence my friend That vain Rhymes with pain……. © Bill Grimes Jr. 2009

"Sacred asylum void of plasticity" Excellent, Bill. You and I both know there is only one such place that exists and we know how to go there. God grant me the serenity, etc. etc. Thanks for sharing!
