Entrapment: Stuck

Feeling sluggish,
Like nothing matters,
Under water,
Blowing bubbles;

Trying to get engaged,
Seeking the means
But discovering nothing
Except pipe dreams;

Disappointments
Keep piling up,
As if daily living
Wasn’t enough!

Struggling to get going
And falling back,
Trying again
But making no gains,

One minute it’s okay
And the next it’s a big deal,
Changing so fast
It makes me reel,

Running around
The hamster wheel
But at least it’s good exercise,
Even if it has no appeal!

Not making progress,
Except to yield
To the whole situation
And wait with patience,

As pretty soon
The picture will change
And then a new direction
Will emerge.
