Crazy How the Mind
You set aside the work that’s hard. Inertia sits until it’s jarred. Crazy how the mind will catch a passive passenger off guard. You care too much, or just don’t care. Disorders virulent are shared. Crazy how the mind will catch whatever’s spreading through the air. You shade the facts to win the fight. Advantage takes the place of sight. Crazy how the mind will catch at anything that proves it right. You make a mockery of good. Just ‘cuz it burns don’t mean it should. Crazy how the mind will catch itself on fire for want of wood.
The poetry here is always free to read, but I do offer paid subscription options for anyone who would like to support my work.
If you wish to show your support but a paid subscription is out of reach, you can simply buy me a coffee and help me stay awake so I can write more.
Whether or not you choose either of these options, I’m grateful that you’ve chosen to spend time here. Your presence is support enough!

A poem for the strange time we inhabit. Poetry makes a place to pause and reflect in the noise. Thank you Mark.
Awesome.
