A place of confusion, today is the norm. <br />The entropy has us, the roads that are torn... <br /> <br />...up make us go crazy, know not where to turn. <br />They change it again just as soon as we learn. <br /> <br />And lines at the store are long. Do you have ten <br />or less items to check out? Eleven! Then... <br /> <br />...you stay in the long line your car is way out <br />in the parking lot the rain pours from a spout. <br /> <br />Then you remember that your laundry is due <br />to pick up; you break your heel off your new shoe. <br /> <br />And children next too you are crying in church. <br />Their parents wont take them out; 'fraid you will hurt... <br /> <br />...the usher for ignoring this obvious, ... <br />...rude and unfit decision while they discus... <br /> <br />...the topics today that we really should share. <br />So we can go back out in that world; compare... <br /> <br />...ourselves to the noisy, the brutal and stray. <br />And hope that we also aren't nearly that way. <br /> <br />Copyright 12-19-2008 ©® Sarah Sisson<br /><br />Sarah Sisson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-confused-world/
