The Cray-Diddly-Cray

You dare not to wonder,
How normal must feel,
A life that brings thunder,
Is simply surreal,
An ache in your quake,
Keeps the boring at bay,
You cannot surrender,
The cray-diddly-cray.

You wallow in pity,
Thy troublesome muse,
Will often get shitty,
With cognitive blues,
Some ice in your slice,
Keeps you chill from the fray,
You cannot surrender,
The cray-diddly-cray.

You fathom a future,
Where time is a blast,
No need for a suture,
To stitch up the past,
A pill for your ill,
Keeps the voices at play,
You cannot surrender,
The cray-diddly-cray.

You bathe in the madness,
Where everything hurts,
Engulfed by the sadness,
Your weary heart blurts,
Put pain will refrain,
Long enough for your say,
You cannot surrender,
The cray-diddly-cray.

You dabble in danger,
That runs you adrift,
A tryst with a stranger,
More ashes to sift,
Your heart from the start,
Was set up for dismay,
You cannot surrender,
The cray-diddly-cray.

You challenge perspective,
When things go awry,
Your inner detective,
Can spot a good lie,
A truth from the sleuth,
Can improve your whole day,
You cannot surrender,
The cray-diddly-cray.

You try to be clever,
With words that you drill,
You think now or never,
For fortunes to spill,
But sold is not gold,
For a published belay,
You cannot surrender,
The cray-diddly-cray.

You dare not to wonder,
How normal must feel,
A life full of thunder,
A soul made of steel,
Some mutt in my strut,
And I’m worthy today,
I cannot surrender,
My cray-diddly-cray.
