Bittersweet Place

The fever to create
Cannot be vanquished of late
Scrawl some little antidote
On anything that happens to be handy
Mind racing out pacing this frail pale cruel mortal coil
Will soon give up on me
Cannot return to relevance or function
Like a cog broken
Part of me is relieved to leave these
Dark thoughts unspoken

Watch the end of the world
From the safety of my window
But alas it is just a bittersweet place
Frantic end some mad race against time
Making my peace with the
Great sublime
All the questions unanswered and pupils untaught
All the hovering and lingering filled with sorrow distraught
All my fighting ambitions were really for naught

Watch the end of the world
From the safety of my window
But alas it is just a bittersweet place
On this island we can weather the storm
While my body crumbles from its design flaws
Oh irony how it beckons and claws
Watch the end of the world
From the safety of my window
But alas it is just a bittersweet place
