WHAT IS THE SITUATION?<\/span><\/b>
\n\u00a9Trev Teasdel Coventry October 1970<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nHere i sit<\/span><\/span>
\nstaring at the sun<\/span>
\nsquirming molten lava that it is.<\/span>
\nAll is calm<\/span>
\nAll is quiet<\/span>
\nTranquillity the colour of the room.<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nWhat is the situation<\/span><\/span>
\nWhen you live for what is ‘Now<\/i>‘?<\/span>
\nI am always hustle bustle in the bedlam of my dreams,<\/span>
\nLiving on my ‘if only’ island.,<\/span>
\nReliving what is passed.<\/span>
\nNo wonder I feel so tired,<\/span>
\nSquandering my energies in this way.<\/span>
\nSo I ask myself  “What is the situation?<\/i>“<\/span>
\n“What are the problems of the Now?<\/i>“<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nHere I sit<\/span><\/span>
\nNothing particular to do.<\/span>
\nThe sun is shining bright<\/span>
\nand all is calm.<\/span>
\nIsn’t everything just beautiful?<\/span>
\nLooking hard at all that is around me.<\/span>
\nTaking down some observations,<\/span>
\nNoticing how a flower dances in the gentle breeze.<\/span>
\nAnd i feel calm<\/span>
\nAnd I feel free,<\/span>
\nWhy can’t I remain this way forever?<\/span>
\nInstead of creating situations<\/span>
\nthat don’t exist right now..<\/span>
\nBut there i go, off into the action of a dream,<\/span>
\nburning energy i could better use.<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nSo sitting here<\/span><\/span>
\nMy body floats<\/span>
\nFar away from the evil warlocks of my dreams.<\/span>
\nReality is the escapist’s dream.<\/span>
\nLooking all around me now<\/span>
\nSeeing all that i missed<\/span>
\nwhilst in the bedlam of my dreams.<\/span>
\nCrossing bridges<\/span>
\nwhen i come to them.<\/span>
\nSo here I sit<\/span>
\nstaring at the sun<\/span>
\nNot a wishing or a hoping<\/span>
\nJust looking at the colours of a tree.<\/span>
\n<\/span><\/p>\n
