Wondering why
They all sit
Like broken trees
Just binding
Before their daily lives
Looking at their journeys
Passing by
And not doing anything
To catch up
Wild life
To catch up
The train is leaving
And it goes fast
Wondering why
They all stay
Stiff in their polished
Shoes, unused
And brand new
Just bragging
Before hierarchy
Not doing a thing
That makes them think.
Their brains
Are shut down
Not even turning
Around and creating
That is
The way things go
Spotted panthers
Playing hummingbirds
Gridlocked
Still flapping their wings
Away they hope
Wondering why
Their pale skins
Never tanned
Or seen sunlight
Rising
Eyes uninhabited
They missed their trains
And still
Waiting for the next one
Never coming
Where to find
Emergency
Hearts are failing
Blaze, drain, collision
They’ve set fire
And strive to get out
Fast but smoothly
Keeping reason
Keeping tangled
In the muddle.
Freaking insanity
Wondering if
They are
Trying out
At least
Trying out
At least
