A gotta mind to squeegee out and hold accountable
the actions of the past affecting the future, forgetting the present.
I gotta rinse it out and throw it back into the fire
Of living
Breathing
Touching. A mind to rise above
The dirt it bleeds on. A new kind of mud
For the ants to crawl through, this mind.
This mind is mine
And I gotta see to it that it doesn’t drown
From dirty thirties cracked open under the sun,
Another day session starting.
I gotta mind, my friends. I hope you don’t
Care my leaving it with you.
Keep it for me until it’s through.
I’m gonna lie in the dirt with the ants. I don’t need it
But I know you do.
