Branches Valentine

My mornings with my angel
My afternoons with my devil friends
My evening exchanges with Jehovah
 
So much muddled thinking in the world
None more muddled than my own
But even that’s not completely true
 
I try to straighten my thoughts
Along a single branch
As if its leaves were my feelings
 
Struggling off into autumn
With a will worthy of winter
Summer in my veins
 
But I see how it all gets muddled again
The personality of a puddle
Reflecting all that remains
