An Inflexion in Time

Hanging onto the past hanging onto the past

Some of it good but never meant to last

I’m flying the American flag at half mast

My wish in a bottle floating in a sea so vast,

As though a portal opens and another disappears

I find at times my belief system is switching gears

In a world of uncertainty some cave to their fears

As the boys in Seal Team Six hoist a few beers,

The event grows near for an inflexion in time

Man incapable of governing himself is a crime

Corruption for which there is no reason or rhyme

Unfaithful human nature can turn on a dime,

Nostradamus predicted man would go out in space

When we can destroy ourselves at home without a trace

And the Democrat paid rioters like to use mace

If you agree with them have them over at your place,

The human alien farm could it be real?

Get your face lift with a chemical peel

Watch society trained like circus seals

It’s not the facts it’s how you feel,

I thought love would end up like Hollywood

Good guy gets the girl it was understood

Now living with regrets over would or could

Knocked off this pedestal on which I stood,

So I grabbed a soap box all over again

Damned if I didn’t lose all my friends

Funny where life leads you to in the end

Some fences too broken to mend.
