A Dancing Sugarplum
Focus, focus, focus,
Is repeating in my head.
But my dreams are alive,
And my concentration’s dead.
A problem on the table,
And another in my mind.
The complication's stirring
And I'm really in a bind.
My attention has been captured,
It's too late to go back.
Now without these daydreams,
I may just crack in half.
I adore the little visions,
Of the things I know aren't bad.
Or haven't been bad ever since
They made me feel glad.
The snap of their fingers,
Are echoing all around.
I wish I could snap out of it
But I still hear a sound.
This sound's a little voice,
Nothing more than a coo.
It's whispering my fate.
There's nothing more to do.
I won't always keep in focus,
Though foolish it may seem.
So I'll listen and I'll learn,
That school doesn't hold all dreams.
