Quasi Gray and Fuzzy
life is quasi gray and fuzzy
while I hoped for more-finite
i’ve received my share of nebulous
while in search of black and white
perhaps approximate and nearly
is all we really get
instead of crystal clearly
and conditions somewhat met
doesn’t mean we give up trying
as the brass ring comes around
but to have a taste of everything
makes for life lived quite profound
would rather have a full slice of life
than to never know the breadth
but to know even just a little strife
provides dimension and rare depth
i’m getting kind of greyish too
my shoulders worn in slope
my days seem a whole lot more finite
as I’m learning how to cope
grey and dusky evenings
follow Arizona’s crystal days
perhaps the palette’s full of color
and all that really matters
is how we spin the platter
and where we focus our life’s gaze
