Analysis of Laws of attraction
D G S 1970 (Brooklyn)
The laws of attraction
We flounder on so much
Never getting enough information
Getting an abundance
information
we anger
apologize
then weep
Fearful for what we don't know
Lines drawn to what should be
Shifting to new places
What are we putting out
Keeps coming back in
Where's the light
In that hole that we fell into
The truth is
The pause
The stop
Forced upon us
Shows the present
The Now
For as long as possible
Realize how precious
This reflection is
So then
All of it
Can shine back on us
