Throw yourself around in life

Meander in your means

Buy or sell or earn

The fever from your dreams

For when you get just what you want

How long can happy last

A moment, day, a week, a time

And then that happy passed

Find a book you read from another life in time

Reunited once again to join the space aligned

So fleeting moments granted thee

An instant in eternity

For what you think you cannot know

How fast your life will really go

And all the time your life is spent

Wanting this to represent

A need for anger

A must to vent

Your money earned to pay your rent

The one true gift your Heaven sent

Is pushed into a kind of Lent

That never gets to have its turn

It patient waits while life goes burn

And near the end we look to see

Our lives hold so much trumpery

A car, a house, a watch, a ring

A relic sentimental thing

It cant go with we leave it here

And still we want just one more beer

Looking for a final buzz

Flit around and try for love

But love is earnt from up above

Theres no trade off for what we do

Theres just me and then theres you

I try so much to be so good

Beat my mind up all the time

As should and could does coil and wind

And dark imaginings make play

They better never see the day

Turning good into a bad

Meaning good but making sad

Mistakes made more and more each day

Is it evil loose at play

Never travelling life unravelling

Speeding fast straight like a javelin

Past the curve no sky to soar

The curve is gone here comes the floor

Me Me Me and wheres the now

Its not today no way no how

Dream that life will turn to steam

Clouds of vapour lifes of dream

No time machines to take us back

For this one life for one more crack

Each step on ice can put us through

The waters black the sky stays blue

To get back out is such a drag

Sink or swim its such a gag

Get it right it’s in the bag

Stay indoors and meditate

Let Buddha Lord be your best mate

Let a whole real life go past

Whats more real what makes your last

Is a better life more spent

Breath awareness Heaven bent

Get yourself out of this cycle

Life is quick don’t take the Michael

Close your eyes and breathe to find

The Lotus diamond in your mind

Lose the treasures bin the dreams

We all one day will lose our seams

Better we get right on track

Mental powers take us back

Twenty minutes every day

Power be to those that pray

In your life desires fray

Your enemies will fade away

A place in time without a clock

A time and place to stop and dock

It wont hurt or leave you in bits

Twenty minutes. Twenty minutes.
