week 316 ~ I feel naked in front of the mirror
I feel naked in front of the mirror
of truth what exactly am I looking
for what more could I expect do I fear
exposure commitment what should I bring
to the table do I still have cards to
play as I stare down the void double check
the map the clock the appointment where do
I line up who’s waiting to stack the deck
in the dark as the world begins to spin
out from under my feet I jump something
catches my parachute the silent din
of waiting words which one the golden ring
I sit up drink in hand searching for rhymes
the damn muse just slaps you around sometimes
thanks to my friend Alec for the last line.
Ah…that Muse does do that from time to time…those lines brought a smile….cheers!

Thanks, yes. And that was a hard verse to get past her.
