In Like A Lion

well here I am
sitting in my mid-morning
sundrenched room
2009 came in like a lion
went out like a tyranosaurus rex
I went primal
back to the basics
back to cave paintings
and emulating the beast
for a good hunt
back to a newborn
naked in her mother's arms
the gift of new sight
is a welcome change
I was in love
not so much out
of love
but was forced not to love
(if you know what i mean)
I want to just be pure thought
untainted inspiration
and sometimes I get it
(and if I had it all the time wouldn't I take it for granted?)
but life and
the world each of us creates
delves up some real experiences
some good
some not so good
but all for reason anyway

I've come to know this far in life
god(s) are comedians
and I laugh right along with them
