Forcing It
A ditty drums endlessly
Through my head reminding
Me of you. And I
Smile. Yet, even with this smile,
I know that something is unsettled
Between the folds of my mind.
A silence pervades
The space between
Yesterday and tomorrow
But today does not exist.
It is only a hope or
A memory, nothing
More. The piano player
Forgets the music and
I slip into triviality as
The dancing bear taps on.
