Yesterday, yesterday I believe it was
yesterday I saw the most intriguing thing of my life
something to catch in a snow globe
a firefly in a jar
astonishingly enough it was only a kite
a mesmerizing kite in the wind, doing tricks
yes I’m aware it’s an ordinary puppet with a string
I’m strongly aware it wasn’t anything special
though at flirt glance it was a mystery
an unknown bewilderment too exciting
admittingly, in another coat, a dragon it could be
but bee is the monster that tore the sight from me
as it’s small attack drove me from my perch
broke my very concentration
the musical lyrics I had stored up for detail
erased, there’s no backspace on this typewriter
so there goes one more masterpiece
I’m stuck with this whole in my head
where the thought used to be
like something’s missing, don’t know if I’m scared or just angry
here awakens the mood of feeling like a scrooge
as once happy look backs are perfect for making this void
expand with malice to become a black hole for me to stay lost in
I could apologize for my snappy dialogue
but I just issue statements so stale
call this a stalemate
so forget my words I’ll call it a day
I’d rather not argue at all
though all this turmoil has caused a headache once again
Laughing to myself, this isn’t real
though the heart beat inside of my chest
tells me it is
but I just turn around stare at the gray sky
wondering if it will rain or if the clouds will smile at me
say, ‘Sorry wait for another day’
Yesterday
