Reality is a walk
in the park
The circles of
terror become old and dusty
They slow and grate
and are at last
Predictable
Gates stay locked
Fences high and
strong
Razor wire for your
ambitions
It comes and goes
but the walls are always
There
Yet
The hardest days
are a simple equation
Comedy is after all
just
Tragedy plus time
All you need is
patience and imagination
Knowing when to
believe the lie
When to buy into
the story
Suspension of
disbelief is invaluable
But
You can’t always
win
And that’s fine
So don’t listen to
those movies where they
Tell you otherwise
If you truly
believe…
If your heart is
pure…
If you are doing
what you love…
It will all work
out
To throw caution to
the wind in this town
Is the same as
pissing into it
There is still a
time and place for the
Fear brought about
by risk
You can still jump
Without breaking a
single bone
You just need patience
and imagination
Reality is a walk
in the park
But at night
In the darkness
Wide awake as young
foxes scream
It is your dreams
that must be overcome.
