schizocreatophenia
two roads
and a yellow wood
no big deal bob
all my life's been trifurcated
triplet branches tugging at my soul
sucking at the well of creativity
each demanding the lion's share
of attention

unable to sacrifice any of my children
have spent a lifetime
trying – and not well –
to appease three muses
my legs ache
with the memory
of trying to straddle these roads
a hopscotch from hell
designed to disquiet
even the most agile jongleur
unable to sacrifice any of my children
have spent a lifetime
trying – and not well –
to appease three muses
my legs ache
with the memory
of trying to straddle these roads
a hopscotch from hell
designed to disquiet
even the most agile jongleur
my mind aches
crammed to overflowing
with eighthnotes visions words
much of which withers
in the pale neglect
of a distracted sun
my heart aches
as the unborn are reabsorbed
never to emerge
in quite the same incarnation
there's not enough time
crammed to overflowing
with eighthnotes visions words
much of which withers
in the pale neglect
of a distracted sun
my heart aches
as the unborn are reabsorbed
never to emerge
in quite the same incarnation
there's not enough time
not enough time
not enough time
not enough...
