Everything blends br Dissolving and combining br Before my eyes br Within my head br Another’s name comes out br Of my mouth when we meet br Letters become numbers br And numbers swim and switch br Colors change br How do I read traffic lights br Shapes change, faces melt br How do I know br If you are man or woman br My relation or a stranger br I cannot distinguish br Pleasure from pain br Sensations flow br Sometimes get stuck br Momentarily br As years fly by br I am young again br And usually happy br Sometimes sad br Without thought br Glad there is br Becoming br No difference br Between living br And dying br Always curious br Filled with love br Even when I must br Mock up anger br More amused br Than anythingbr br Sheila Burnsbr br
