Exhume

metal scratch inside my head

I want only to go to bed

anger the rivulet into the River

up and out of me I seek to exhume you balance is balance is starting again

over and under always forever

if you clamp down control on a vice

it will treat you not very nice

you will want to stay inside a cave

and spend your day having a shave

the mirror will be your best friend

all said and done in the end

you see, the dragon beast is real he’ll do all and evrything to steal

fear mongers come out to play

the best way to deal is look and stay acknowledge the bugger is real straight in the eye face it trace it keep circling back

remember: you learned to ride

when you were only five

keep doing the shaky wobbly

later today you’ll be upright

on two wheels better yet one

after you have afternoon tea

and cookies you will see

feel touch a noticeable relief

it will be ‘cuz you stood still

and refused to back down

your spine column

will be there

you’ll have come

home to yourself

and no one else
