Rabbit Hole


RABBIT HOLE!

 

Your thoughts are in a whirl

Your mind in a trance

And you've forgotten how

To mitigate the dance

Your head is on fire 

Your heart it pounds

There is no easy way

For you to come down

This lifelong obsession 

Of seeing askance

Will not allow you

To grow or advance 

In the end you realize 

The truth of the matter

With your head in your hands

Your thoughts begin to scatter

But for one brief moment

Your mind congeals

suddenly your pretensions

Are blatantly revealed

As you slip back into your rabbit hole!

Your reality begins to bend

Lost in a moment,

Which never really unwinds?
