Who Would You Say is to Blame?

Gray skies today may mean snow or rain.

Why is it we long so for renewal and

unification? There are deep oceans hidden

within us. The ladder resting beside the

barn will eventually rot away. There shall

be no climbing today. We fondly remember

the way things were, yet willingly comply

with the inevitability of change. Each day

carries a message which includes you, and

you fail to see a solution. Someone not

related to you points the finger. Me, you

ask? For the gray and the rain, this time

you accept the blame. The oceans are

teeming with fish. When the net is cast,

some will be caught, so many more are

meant to escape. Should any of this ring

true for you, don’t just stand there, turn

around and walk away...

Yes, you, I’m talking to you! Confused?

No one said this was going to be easy.
It is then you may come to understand

that this puzzle cannot be successfully
completed for it seems to be missing
far too many pieces.
