Potions

Proportions,
Portions and potions:
A dynamic, yet unknown, equilibrium.
To shift and begin
to be who we'll become.

Come now the sun is rising.
our homogeneous mixture is not the solution.
We're a bit mixed up, a tad undone.
Come now, but don't rush
as there's no one to outrun.

Come now, we've begun
with potions of portions in proportion.

Sicklical

It's sicklical; it really is
How babies have babies who have babies

It's sicklical; it really is
How babies become parents but not grown-ups

It's sicklical; it really is
How parents fail children who fail theirs

It's sicklical; it really is
How people are hostile and closed off

Take a stick and stick it in that cycle
Stop the stationary rotation

Jounce the cyclists so they fall
so they scrape their knees and elbows
so they never want to ride again

Search for alternative transportation:
Try a bike or bus or walking.
Don't walk by the sicklical biker--push him off
