Torn

The complexities of life are simple things
they are just difficult to face and do
when we would much rather do another

I want so much to do just the simple things
but the complexities are layered in their
attractiveness and woven difficulties

Cart before the horse
cake and eat it too
a second book while finishing another

My thoughts are a whirl wind - ever
going in multiple directions simultaneously
like Trek's Three Denominational Chess

Living an alternative timeline
out of sync
disjointed
