Understanding Chaos
By the time I realised
the puddle wasn't deep enough
I was already diving
through the oil coated meniscus.
A coiled serpent
displaced inside a ripple
only going out to come back in
shedding my skins,
expressions I plucked
for the changing winds.
Nerves that strobe through conversations
tin foil rubbed on metal filled teeth,
beneath the smile a whirlpool waits
to swallow each day
the management of traits.
A clever chameleon
only sees the black and white
his tongue takes the snow flake,
hides all day, awake all night
but roads are meant for crossing.
So I unfold my shield of chaos
and swirl with leaves
were eddies end,
surf each storm behind a made up story,
then fall like kites when calm skies mend.

If your undies fer you've been smoking through em, don't peg em out
