Turning Point

Everybody has experienced a turning point It’s a natural part of life; it’s part of growing up Life is a sleek roller coaster that goes down and up There’s a Carrefour which we must turn to a point To pause, think, fathom and reflect upon and to move on To face a neoteric reality, an ingenious centaur with apron Unusual or strange events take place all the time where Nobody is in control; nobody dares to face the bad bear Life is more than an enigma, a hieroglyph, a mystery Nobody can really predict anything under the hala tree One must do his/her best to use the turning point to be A newer individual, a courageous leader and a brilliant apprentee Only schlemiels don’t change; only zombies have no hope to be better It’s scary and sad that the world is following the demented monster.
