Confusion
Green and
Blue blotches
With no reason
Nor rhyme.
Racing, like
Purple chainsaws
Dancing through my head
Like sugarplums
At Christmas time.
Cross-eyed acrobats
Jumping through
Twisted rings of
Nothing at all.
Feels like I'm
Falling and cracking
Anxiously, like
Humpty Dumpty
Off the wall.
Lies, deceit, and honor
All hide underneath
A woven blanket
Of disbelief.
I
Can't
Find
Truth.
I can no longer
Find innocence.
I can no longer
Tell what's good for me
None of this is making sense!
Eyes on
The clock...
Bodies on
The floor...
Making some
Sense again
With the shelves
Back in stock,
And more guests at the door.
Here we go again.
I rise,
I twist,
I run,
I leap,
But I am
Getting nowhere.
Can't die,
But can't seem
To get my hand
Off my gun.
Are you lying
Or winning
Or losing
Or stealing?
You say
These things until
My head
Won't stop spinning.
Friends
Roses
Walls
Shoes!
Make some
Sense of
All this fusion!
Now you can
Taste my medicine,
Just one
Dose of
My confusion.
