Extremities

Extremities confusing me

Affect me night and day

Fascinated, devastated

Critical decade

Vanishing greenery, changing scenery

Yet somehow

I acceptExtremities confusing me

Yet somehow

I acceptWhite heat,

I watch a meltdown

Cut the wood against the grain

Pleasure, pain one word

Extremities

I'm frightened,

I'm excited

And I cannot differentiate

Between the two, can you?

White heat,

I watch a meltdown

Cut the wood against the grain

Pleasure, pain one word

Extremities

Each and every one of us

Is watching for the signs

The days go by we count the moments

The moments of our lives

All the times, all the time

The earthquakes came

And the buildings all fell down

And the waves

I sawI saw the people slowly drown

Yes, the sun grew hot

And the children dehydrate

I saw the soldiers burn

I saw their skin just blister and break

Each and everyone of us is counting out

The moments of our lives all the time
