tick tock

Problems in my belly,
Problems in my soul,
Problems in my head,
that keep me thinking I am old,
Problems in my logic,
that look for a quick fix,
for all the worlds problems,
that persist to exist,

I got piles and piles of reasons,
and books from here to there,
I follow complex arguments,
but they don't lead me anywhere,
the beaker's full of water,
the scale is full of led,
there's a tick tock, tick tock,
coming from my head,
the sun is setting faster,
the clouds are moving swift,
there's an orange pink energy to wake me from my drift,

I feel the pull of beauty,
I sense some change to come,
the clock is silenced
and all I hear is drums,
Oh please blow the trumpet,
I'm waiting ready here,
engulf this in a wave,
and clean us all clear.
