Barriers

      1.
      Barriers of sadness
      divide up all my life
      hampering communion
      with horse, with mule, with wife
       

      2.
      I cannot see tranquility
      nor touch the passion button
      I'm about as appealing
      as a cold dead leg of mutton
       

      3.
      Is it wobbling
      hoping desperate dreamers
      keeping me alive,
      only to be bowled over by tomorrow's
      solitary breakfast platter full
      of sorrow and of sighs
