Shifting left, shifting right
validation or confirmation of bliss and wonder
turn this corner or wander that path
distractions forward and back, so perfectly placed
Sparkling, frothy, on ice, red or white?
With sugar, milk or honey?
Tall, dark, slim, curvy or voluptuous?
Fast, luxurious, sensible, or bling
Providing numbed emotions, blurry vision,
muted hearing, dulled tastes, and Weakened smells.
With a hunched back, we move aimlessly forward needing more salt,
spattered perfume and arms flailing for direction
A gift of reflection within a mirror, awakens our senses
Clarity within vulnerability, naked without guise
awkwardly dancing in the pleasurable experience of being a human,
knowing this is our medicine of life.
The world within, created individually,
within our own minds, our own chains,
our own dances and our own reflections
Freed all the same, with bliss, peace and love!
