Haven't you heard?
July 10, 2010
I breathe it all in,
Now it refuses to come out.
All I tried to take in,
What is all this now about?
It’s all in this mess,
Up to my neck in stress,
Spinning, turning, pulling,
Yanking, standing, choking.
Where does it start?
Where to begin,
It continues forever,
When will it end?
You say one line,
She spills more,
He adds another thing,
It’s not what it was before.
With this story, two and two make
Five?
Rewind your words and thoughts,
Play them again in your mind.
Is that right or even yours to tell?
Leave the news undefined.
