A MATRIX FOR AN ISSUE BY TASNIM LANGRY Yes, it is called a Matrix . . .

--

So many in a trance, failing-to-mix!

A cocktail of many tricks,

To ease a sneeze with a drop of Vicks.

--

A tissue,

For an issue.

Anxiety and queasy,

--

For energy played too loosely.

Imagination slaying profusely, reeling,

As if happiness, it-is-stealing.

For a place to be simply appealing,

Look closely in how you are dealing,

It is apparent in the energy one is feeling,

Does it keep you mind-reeling?

Unappealing!

Try relaxing like waxing,

Painful yes, but smoothness calms, pricks so taxing.

Smooth and carefree silk a best friend,

Jumping on a plastic mountain finding our inner children.

Up and down,

All around.

Flowing upward,

Some face downward.

Turn inward,

Or angry like Spongebob's Squidwad.

Smile silly-billy like Willy who was so bonkers!

Nightmares soon become daydreams even if it takes yonkers . . .

Breathe again as you know your own commotion,

Words touch you from sincere-devotion,

This is an Eternal ocean,

Ever in motion.

Why say for a rare few, and discriminate unwisely,

Judge me not until One judges-wisely at a Time destined, precisely.
