A fool’s bended view of the world

Bend in steel
heart’s feel, soul’s peel

force of emotions
elations, demotions
sacrifice, devotions,

all wasted, if I lost
self absorbed love
at vanity’s cost
Has to be you

where I need to be true
not me and my marathon
hike and climb,
open or sublime,
the ladder of affection

self satisfaction!
get off this path
true love dissatisfaction
destruction, demolition
is what is required
heart enquired,
but found none

and that is a fact
enough of the act
drown or leave
never to be seen
nothing in between
Capisce old chum
blown up drum,
in whisky and rum

Bend

Life journey smooth
Emotions bending its move
Anger makes it hard
In love you fly
Sadness makes it crawl
Happiness takes it high
Just keep an eye
on speed
