Confusion or Clarity? - Lester Queripel


 ...It's a push me pull you kind of world.
I seem to spend most of it in a whirl.
I feel like a Yo Yo on a string.
I spend a lifetime wondering where I've been.
Pull me up. Put me down.
Spin me round and round and round.
Pulled this way and that.
Am I a cricket ball or a cricket bat?
A rollercoaster ride. A conveyor belt.
You play your hand with the cards you're dealt.
But who pulls the strings?
Can you see the puppeteer?
Where's the magician?
Did he disappear?
Open the window, close the door.
What are rules and regulations really for?
I thought I was confused.
But now I'm not so sure.
