The untangled knot

by Rich Brewer

Sitting alone in a chair not a throne

Ideas spewing like ooze under a city

Spinning a web, a line and a ditty

Yet still alone

 

Offering everything to give

Somethings just got to give

Yet unreciprocated

To be unmet and unloved

 

Forward thinking but sinking all the same

Life's but a ruin if left untamed

An endevour to help, exuding calm

But there's no answer,...
