Neither Treat Nor Trick

Poetry
Pure Magic
Every Now
And
Every Then
 
Saw a ghost
that found some
Light,

But wait,
But wait,
Did he find it?
 
Palm
Trees,
Five,
Four,
 
And Other
Minds,
For those
To see
 
Six
Nine,
Un-see 
 
Three
One,
 
You don’t wanna see,
 
Matter
Two
Seven
 
All stop acting
 
Eight
 
You wanna make it?
 
Ain't doubting
 
I saw a ghost,
The soul found
Other ghosts,
 
Masked,
Or
Unmasked,
 
Sold,
Or
Unsold,
 
Light,
Or
Dark,
 
And other souls,
For those
To see
 
Unsee,
Not see,
 
See
a
Sea of
Light

Under
Dark,
We
Still
See

To see
Caress
 
And such is, Life,
 
And such is, Love,
 
And such is, Verse,

And such is, 
Such is,
Such...

There's to your soliloquies,
For you
To read,
 
Don’t need a price
 
Do you,
Always walk the talk,
And talk the walk?
 
 To feel,
 Or...
 
Not to feel?
 
That, is the question
 
Do you really want an answer?

Before
And
After,

One, there is definitely
Going, to be.
 
Make it,
Will,
 
Neither trick
Nor treat,
 
To feel, or not to feel?
Your real sad tragedy,
Face it.
 
Choir.
 
Sing.
 
2020
 
Wanna make it?

Will still dance either way,
Fight abuse,
Will 
Respect,

And,
Write.

And,
Think. 

Thought we were All in this
Together
Were, We, Not?

Perhaps never...
 
One way or another,
Will make it
 
Now - you got me feeling
 
Hope for spring
To
Come
 
You wanna make it?
 
I

Will
 
Take it.
 
There, there's your sad Dare.
 
Be a Good One.
 
Neither treat,
Nor trick,

One way or another,
Magic,
Every once in a while,

And,
Make it. 

Will you never learn anything,
Jon Snow?

There,
To your empathy,
And to walking,
In somebody else's shoes.

With loving gratitude to my friends,
my family,
And to all those that still love,
And still fight.

Some new spring
Will come
