Boogie-Woogie Tuesday Blues :TT - Shake it...



Boogie-Woogie Tuesday Blues

I want to shake ‘em all
Shake ‘em silly until they see sense.
~~~
i
Shake the old bones to say
Life is far from over so why aren’t you living?

Your own choices are tying you up in invisible knots
Making it harder to take forward steps...

But then you say you’ve done enough shaking and moving
And now you’ve earned the right to just be still.

ii
Shake the marbles in that addled brain
The one where you believe you are owed

The one where everything is best or worst
The one that has so many fears that they paralyze your actions

But we have finally agreed to disagree
And attempt to move forward from there...

iii
Shake the bossy bones that think they know it all
And then when the ‘shit hits the fan’ expects clear skies

And I wonder if some of the choices you’ve made
Have resulted in advancing others attitudes of ‘I don’t give a damn’

But then you say you’ve done this all before, the roll of master to pawn
And really there isn’t much to be done, except wait until the end...
~~~

I want to shake ‘em all
Senseless though, if I want to keep my own...senses.

    Oh, I felt "yes" with every word of this. I plan to do a bit of shaking up myself tomorrow, but don't count on it!

Thanks for your kind words. I do review all comments before posting - so if your comment disappears on you, don't fret. I will post honorable comments as soon as I am able.

I do not post or return visits to "Anonymous Comments." Adding your link to an unrelated site will not help. Most everything that ends up in spam will not be posted, especially that which makes no sense to the post.

Any 'opinions' that are not introduced, explained and are unrelated to my post will not be honored. Having a 'legitimate' blog will not help - you will be marked as spam. You will have no voice here. Thank you.
