Forward Backward

Questioning reality?

 

Forward Backward

As I was walking forward my mind was going backward

To a day that really wasn’t even then.

And I think it was another time, another place, another rhyme

But I don’t think I quite remember when.

If earth is earth and sky is sky, maybe you can tell me why

The wind kicks up but never kicks around,

And if I’m here I’m really not, so what I have I haven’t got

If sunshine melting doesn’t make a sound.

There cannot be a reason for the year, the month, the season

That couldn’t be explained in spoken word, 

'Cause pretty is as pretty does, magick is and always was

And all my thoughts are totally absurd.

This is funny yet meaningful. I'm impressed by this and I like it.
