Or Trip Over Want

 "another fortnite lost in America" -Fortnite, Taylor Swift

so swiftly it becomes a burning

the pull that is yearning

a desire fiercely kindled

all logic cast down and defeated

might as well deny the moon

then say you do not swoon

or trip over want

still, our hearts are not

to the simple glorious end

that life goes on again and again

that love will always win

forever and ever amen

take some time to look around

 "You had your qualms!?!" -Patricia, Widows Bay

An Ode

through the fog they come creeping

our nightmares given hearts a'beating

to feast on our fears they come

but only a few will be undone

dont forget to grab a coffee as you go

the pace here is kind of slow

take some time to look around

dont pay any attention to that clown

this house of horrors is ours to tend

in a world where hunger ne'er ends

where our fears do survive

so that we can thrive 

of fates divine design

 "and how could anybody deny you?" -Coldplay

all roads lead to pain

there is no refrain

from the unending plight

of the dying of the light

deny it all you want

but none of us are a confidante

of fates divine design

no matter what one may opine

we try to know so much

about what little we have touched

the universe doesn't care

what plans we dare
