Centered

In this blue funk
Self-righteous world it is 
So easy to go off kilter, 
To skew to the left, 
Skid to the right, 
Slip, slide and sashay on 
Ice-covered pathways.

Every distraction demands 
Just a little attention as 
Everything multiplies and 
Next thing you know all 
Vision is lost and all that is left 
Are the tears in your eyes. 

Lying alone in your midnight enclosure 
Lost as you contemplate 
What might have been. 
Looking for ways to get back to the center. 
It never hurts to 
Start over again.
