What do you think of it?





What do you think of it?

What comes out of it?

In the beginning, it intrigues you

Maybe something completely to disregard

Then takes your fancy upon it,

And goes round and round about it.

Suddenly, a queer thought possesses you

Your desire to get at ease with it without being accustomed

Of pulling strings around you without being attached

Of calling it names without giving it one.

You’re puzzled, you’re intrigued, you’re appalled and yet you’re there

Back and forth, high and low

Slowly, the ‘it’ grows into you,

Eating the life out of you

Rekindling the life of life in you

The fancy has turned to hatred

With vehement passion unleashed



To be finished…
