Boston Bench

time goes both ways
will it bloom or will it decay
time will tell
when shall i find my belle

for now i can’t tell
leave that desire
at the bottom of the well
off my mind until i find

rings
rings a bell?
rings for myself
until they’re for someone else.

wealth
in health
in companionship
all to make my soul whole.

hole now filled
feelings now spilled
life’s a thrill
what doesn’t kill, tills

a mind
refined, aligned
with passion and purpose
see into the circus.
