2020 - What Lies Beneath

2020 gives our lives a shake!
Offbeat thoughts – a different 'take'
Human life seems so absurd
Emotions hide behind each word...
Behaviour seen in shades of grey
We're pulled up short with this «new» way...

Out in the ether my odes go
And you, my Readers in-the-know,
Are tempted to connect on screen
To see what insights you can glean!
The game's afoot with Twittersphere:
Clickbait titles must have flair!

The glaring truth - that life is brief:
We wrestle with what lies beneath
So poets feel impelled to write
With irony to keep things 'light'
Humour helps our souls to bind
And see things through a lens more kind ...

(c) Poet in the woods 2020
