LOGIC FLAWED


When time began

Not so long ago

The world was only new to me

Eyes that saw good and sweetness


The minutes passed with each thought

The world kept changing

Malleable and in motion

Never relenting, as I tried to keep pace


Then in a swirl and with a whirl

My mind began to spin

Somewhat out of control

The struggle I found myself in


One of logic and rational thought

Turned to dismay and confusion

Twisted in its weird delight

Like the wind there was no remorse


Without understanding just constant flux

Stepping forward and side to side

Where was direction in this world

It had forgotten me


Left me behind to dangle from a cliff

So there I hung wondering why

What was left, where do I go

Another step, that was a leap


Flying, soaring through the air

Yet all the time falling

Up or down I could know

My mind was a flounder in a land of concrete


Waiting for the ground

Then for me to make my mark

With impact, without a sound

Then I heard thunder and time began anew


The cycle unbroken as I walked though

This world ever changing

As I remained the same

Full of logic, flawed and linear
