the days go from pouring rain and hail
to grey-splattered rainbow skies
i hear birds signalling another day.
all is calm, sweet, potential
poet-encial
but my mind starts to spin
i know that world politics are slicing through puff-ball dreams
revenge for the killing of a terrorist looms in every city
at home, a student is being left to fate
my heart shakes in fear for innocence about to be butchered
some folks send valentines today
in honour of a poor lovesick jailbird
i used to tell that story to kids
but it's a tale for another time, our time is laden with love as much as possible, whenever it can be found
i'd rather tell a tale of honesty, being straight and hoping for reciprocity
no time for games today
it's now or never

i hear birds signalling another day.
