Almost Amused 

Lines are drawn the world is askew

Why didn’t it work between her and you?

Could it be her cynical residue?

Her past you didn’t create and never knew,

There’s something wrong with the morning dew

It seems the White Knight is always subdued

Perhaps it had something to do with her cynical residue

She’s only familiar with being abused,

So many ways things could have been

But in life we’re always accompanied by sin

You’re shadowed by the dirty deeds that did her in

The human mind is weak and undisciplined,

The love that could have been shared lost in the wind

The wreckage that flipped over you’re pinned

Would you please notify next of kin?

Meanwhile I’ll be orbiting earth in a capsule of tin,

In another life I may have earned my plight

It seems the Banshee stalks me by night

Always seems to be shadows just out of sight

Only dark entities seem to want an invite,

My fair haired little one

As beautiful as the rays of sun

Brought into a world that is undone

The burden of sin that weighs a ton,

Don’t look back you can’t go back

The very words of those on the attack

And yet your life is never quite on track

Got to get that bikini babe in the sack,

Someday that comedy curtain will fall

There won’t be any options left at all

The bell will toll and you’ll hear the call

All those preoccupations will seem so small,

I'm evolving now into a different point of view

Was it a divine spark illuminating me anew?

Finally emerging right on cue

I perished in the wilderness almost amused.
