I wonder
[ music ]
I wonder at motivation
at what kindles desire
on past
the blocks
of fear
or indifference
at what drives the small flame
to be ignored and die
or gently breathed
into full fire
I wonder at motivation
at what kindles desire
into faith
to step
past feelings
voting
with feet
carrying a heart bemused, confused
asleep to its own desires
I wonder at motivation
at what kindles desire
past the wondering doubt
that tosses magic beans
out the window
shaking its head
at such
utter foolishness
˚
I wonder at motivation
at what kindles desire
on past the blocks of fear or indifference
at what drives the small flame to be ignored and die
or gently breathed into full fire.
