Need To Recharge <br /> <br />Trying to work while my right eye <br />pulls away to the side, I have to turn <br />my head left, squint from there, pull <br />the eye in a skew line so I can see <br /> <br />what’s happening on the screen in <br />front of me, the situation is dire, I <br />have lost all desire to do my duty, <br />my eye indicates I went to bed <br /> <br />much too late, my brain is zonked <br />out, my mind is closed up with a <br />cloth of darkest night, cotton wool <br />in my ears, no motivation <br /> <br />to get up and see who is laughing <br />in the passage, time standing still <br />a relative moment of infinity where <br />the music has stopped <br /> <br />can’t wring any more thoughts from <br />my head, the mind’s broadcasting <br />station completely dead, I need to <br />recharge to wake up again... <br /> <br /> <br />Setting You Free With A Smile That Is Wry <br /> <br />Came Romeo from down the <br />passage to install Adobe Reader, <br />fifteen days in which to play because <br />provisional under one license only <br /> <br />I need only a license to kill, kill on <br />behalf of Her Majesty, I’m so angry, <br />but sad because of disappointment; <br />where is my book that tells me <br /> <br />We all should be a light unto <br />ourselves, we need no-one to <br />understand the law of well-being <br />to profit from it <br /> <br />I shall swallow my disappointment <br />on rediscovering that humans are <br />beings free making choices without <br />reference to any of our dreams <br /> <br />Once again, with the help of a book, <br />a story, a scheme - dream up a storm <br />that will make me feel good and attract <br />more good things unto me <br /> <br />Setting you free with a smile that is <br />wry - but totally forgiving, fly away, <br />little dream, there ALWAYS will <br />be another in your place…<br /><br />Margaret Alice<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/feelings-need-to-recharge-setting-you-free/
