Deciphering
Reading to much into it
That’s all my mind does.
Nothing is as it seems,
Regardless of the context
And the repetition of content
Or the crystal-ness of clarity
It is always something else
Black is never black
White is never white
Grey is always gray
Or 372 shades of it
Always a hidden agenda
Or nothing of the sort
Works my mind overtime
Open to interpretation
And then reinterpretation
One plus one equals two
Yet, given to an accountant
It can be what you need it to be
It’s 5 o’clock somewhere
That is not real either
For it is man made
That mountain of fallibility
Isn’t worth the climb
My approximations
Are wholly inaccurate
An eye roll or sideways look
can mean anything
Or impossible to categorize
Of frivolity, disgust or despair
A lot of truth is spoken in jest
But what is truth and what is jest
Must be something I can bank on
Could it be money in the bank
Kind of hard if it’s a noun and verb
Its very / vary existence
Is numbers on a screen
No screens, poof, no money
I need more clues
To magnify the code
If a guy works all his life,
to declare himself
An honest man,
Then, dies in the middle of his statement.
Was he ever either?
I thought that was the end
Of whatever this could be called
Not for one to stay in limbo
My writing is like my driving
It’s geared towards a solution
Destinations are too final
Only to restart to another end
A solution is temporary
Good but temporary
Like the proverbial mouse trap
A better one or better way
Is always being tried
Obviously I can’t conclude this
That would miss the pointless point
Now that I’ve figured what
I’ve been trying to decipher
Is kindness and happiness
Can always treat others kinder
And kinder, reciprocating too / to
Making myself happier and happier
A sort of regenerating reciprocity…….
