Were stresses best left to their inherent indolence
we’d be up and away, no point framing disvested
legacies - or blaming anybody; so we’ll sit at their
desk and try to see whose dramatic point of view
coloured rainbows of confusion - altering the few
well chosen words too subtly to be unreasoned -
if we’re the victims alleged, there seemed to be a
theme - or were we in awe a bit too dramatically
Yet we survived a test - depression doesn’t bless
victor nor vanquished equally - nor does it define
whose side has an ascendency when you sit in a
chair removed; so we’re here now where dramas
play to a little less distraction, & solo roles merge
into cameos leading away from this centre stage
