respite is fleeting
with swarms calling your name
dragging you into the fray
when you would rather remain
at the fraying edges
stepping back from ledges
pulled by the shirt tails
tooth and nail kicking and screaming
to plummet anyway into
a daily dose of paid imprisonment
don’t feed the hungry lions in their lair
righteous indignation thriving
forces gaining traction
which faction is truthful
no one knows only when
common sense rules the day but
sense is not so common
