Kuna matata
The rivers are drying
The fishes are dying
The leaves are greying
The trees are falling
The food is dwindling
Kuna matata
The sun is fading
The rain is cutting
The moon is darkening
The wind is whirling
The air is chocking
Kuna matata
The light is dimming
The darkness is crippling
The shades are unmanning
The shadows are frightening
The hollows are terrifying
Kuna matata
The flame is dulling
The fire is blurring
The energy is weakening
The zeal is palling
The vigour is flatting
Kuna matata
The neck is stooping
The bones are squeaking
The knees are frailing
The heads are hurting
The hearts are aching
Kuna matata
The burden is growing
The load is steeping
The weight is mounting
The pressure is rising
The work is killing
Kuna matata
The words are failing
The language is fizzling
The songs are ebbing
The rhythm is withering
The music is sinking
Kuna matata
The faith is failing
The hope is floundering
The love is afflicting
The peace is flailing
The soul is yearning
Kuna matata
The tears are falling
The wails are deafening
The sorrow is creeping
The pain is tormenting
The agony is wounding
Kuna matata
The children are crying
The mothers are wailing
The fathers are scuffling
The brothers are struggling
The people are suffering
Kuna matata

Harboring Happiness - Day 1
Today in harboring happiness, I idle on the front porch while a finch flitters through the resident pile of leaves littering my yard. The hounds huff at her rustling between cracks in the sagging, sunbaked fence. I wonder if she is nesting or scavenging for rootless seeds. Yet, happiness imagines she is playing hopscotch instead, as if even birds understand these silly little things need time and a place to exist.
