CATCH ME IF YOU CAN - REVISED AND REPUBLISH

Yellow rays caress my skin

Heat wakes me from a restless slumber

Feet hit the floor, something is different

Today nothing will bring me asunder

This dawn I feel light on my feet

My body does not protest this morn

For once, a smile, across my face

I am happy to have been born

Senses attuned with nature

With dilated eyes, I see beauty so strange

Reds encircled with fogs of fuchsia

Everything around me has changed

Skin tingles to the slightest touch

Blood tickles as it courses through my veins

Nose stings from the aroma of flowers

Bubbly aspirations implode upon my brain

Clothes mismatched and colorful

Everyone’s necks turn and bend

Colorful hues of make up smeared on

So I can charm the men

Thoughts in my head are racing too fast

Unrelenting words roll across my flapping tongue

No logical sense to be heard

Talking about anything under the sun

“Hello. What is your name?”

“I just love your hat.”

“Have you heard what Jesus said?”

“Oh my, look at the pretty kitty cat.”

Elated to unimaginable heights

Euphoric high now causing delusions

Don’t bother to tell me out of concern

I’ll only argue it’s your illusion

It’s time to run fast and far

Hide from any concerned man

So I can relish my unknown insanity

Catch me if you can
