* ribbons *
These ribbons of pain
These ribbons of regret
The tangled undoing findings
By horror heart beset
A wandered broken land
A tired crazy man
Dancing to the jitterbug
Of life and work and family
Never feeling ease for moment
Trying to balance self
Against pressures of a multitude
Of obligations to be done
Chores to be completed
Until the taffy man
Pulled so far out of shape
Cannot pick where troubles start
Or where the end of heart.
