For The Sake Of Self
Things are happening that can’t be explained.
I need some logic to make it more plain.
Everything is melted down & become one.
One is lonely but, better than none.
Bring the demon into the light.
Check it out.—– Do not fight.
Bring this mess to a screeching end.
The demon has nothing to defend.
Now, my world is rapidly expanding.
All it took was a little understanding.
A deep introspect of how it works.
Casting out all the crazy quirks.
I have learned but, it could come back.
Send this demon on a different track.
Life is good without stupid hang-ups.
My life is now beginning to line up.
Others have their demons too.
They may not know what to do.
Hopefully, they will work it out.
It is all a mess without a doubt.
Every day brings new situations.
New people with new obligations.
Nightly, I need an introspection.
To make sure it’s the right direction.
To maintain a high functioning mental state
is a goal for me that’s become my fate.
I have to walk the straight and narrow.
Knowing, for the sake of self, be careful.
