Wait 'n watch

There are such mornings,
when on waking up you're confused
if the sun will rise, or night will set in.
Life throws you in such situations,
when you're as ignorant and unsure
as a recalcitrant child, lost in a fair.

Ignorance is not bliss, oblivion is.
Just go, sleep in the paper boat
flung in the river of time,
flowing nonchalantly with the tide,
and wait, but wait until what ?
Don't know. Just wait 'n watch.
