All of my known obsessions
Waiting in line for me
Not to resist
Since I am not into posessions
Fill in the blank for what is
Left to exist
It's never been intoxicating
Simply because I like to
Stay in control
I am a master debating
Whether or not this is the
Right way to go
But then I tend to forget
That all of my thinking
Is keeping me numb
My thoughts got my attention
Under their thumb
My ship might be sinking
If I don't look ahead
In the end the now may seem not all that bad
Of all of my known professions
It seemed the most obvious
Path I could take
But the fear of a great recession
Made me sail round the best
Mistake I could make
I was a master inflating
Constant avoidance so it looked
Like the truth
But playing was more liberating
Than anything else
Since the days of my youth
