Fingers crossed
Coins tossed
What's your cost?
Quenching thirst
Feeling lost
You go first!
Coffee roasts
Noisy toasts
We are ghosts.
Sudden change
Too low wage
Turning page...
Right on stage
Sing and dance
So intense
Broken rhythms
Brand-new themes
Tingling limbs.
It's my turn
Threw a stone
Killed a bird
Now I weep
Poor creep
Take a chord
Spinal cord
Resonates
Infiltrates
Pliant brain
Now refrain:
It's a broken record
The broken record it is
Please dismiss
Your thoughts for a second
A split second
Off the record
Squeeze your thoughts
Inside the box
And think of naughty naughts
And roundabouts
Or giant rocks
And racks with doubts
Or risky stunts.
Fingers crossed
Broken toes
Highs and lows
No one knows
Future holds
Something at your head:
Grief? Love? A gun? A thread
Of your life?
Strive to thrive

Andrei that was a fun one! I love it, I hung off your every word! I loved the whimsicality of "And think of naughty naughts" even though it also felt kind of sultry. Nicely done!
What’s the Rhyming structure in the middle..? This was unique! 😃
