Looking Sideways
the buzz of bees
all around the trees
never satisfied
or so it seems
receiving blue shoes
wishing for red
never satisfied
with what we have
a scribbled note
essentially saying
i'm satisfied
a reminder
after work rest
raising a glass
being satisfied
sitting at supper
watching a life churn
the ugly and good
moments of satisfied
hours of building
memory of the dead
memorize their ways
slightly satisfying
smell hear see them
a big desire
pounding for attention
never satisfied
wrestling to rest
why am i crying
a joy a triumph
always satisfied
reaching to this
...
