Don't Look

 Don't Look


There are a million billion gazillion
things that happen when attention
you do not simply pay
So do not worry about what you
do not see and what you do not say
There are things moving up behind you
Surprises at your back
Some will bring joy, some will
as a sharp honed knife attack
But while you are not looking
Do not worry that you will miss
The thing that you most fear
Might never come, replaced instead
with an unexpected kiss
Kick up your heels and try
to not fret about what happens when
you are not attention paying
the truth is that there is little that
we actually control
might as well suckle life's joy
that  is all – I’m just saying
