Question Marks
By Indi Riverflow | September 14, 2016
Djinn spinning in bodies of dust
Air rippling with cobalt sparks
Dancing in fantasies of treasure and trust
Coming to in a bed of thorns
Beneath a scalding hot pink dome
The wailing wind imitating horns
Mirages curdling up with foam
Crowds and clouds appeared like smoke
Where nothing at all should be
And now I know just what kind of joke
The desert was playing on me
{Chorus}
It’s time and it’s time
And it’s time to make it happen
But it’s a different it this time
Matters may not get better
But they’ll be different all the same
Cause like they say, history rhymes
The ambrosia and the nectar flowed
From a fountain of naive dreams
And it was golden how everything glowed
Until it all came apart at the seems
Mobius band got out of hand
The envelope pushed over a cliff
Balloon blew until it could not expand
As we tired of that familiar riff
{Chorus}
It’s time and it’s time
And it’s time to make it happen
But it’s a different it this time
Matters may not get better
But they’ll be different all the same
Cause like they say, history rhymes
We held a coronation for a scarecrow
Under a setting-sun halo
Poured our seeds in sterile soil
Watered with our essential oils
Never dared to doubt out loud
When we danced up a storm among the clouds
Split the sky and kicked loose rain
Trickling down in liquid refrains
Back to the old drawing board
Let’s see if this one strikes a chord
For the blueprint’s only paper-thin
When the human element enters in
{Chorus}
It’s time and it’s time
And it’s time to make it happen
But it’s a different it this time
Matters may not get better
But it’ll be different all the same
Cause like they say, history rhymes
