The Carnival of My Conscience

Conundrums swirl in my mind
  Like one twirls a fine wine
Or the passage of time
  Mythical concoctions
Of rhyme and reason
  Paint symphonies of unanswered questions
About my heart’s deepest desires
  Leaving holes in the carcass of my soul.
 
Saints and sinners play
  In this carnival of my conscience.
Pointing out cardinal sins
  While I indulge in carnal ones.
Mary-goes-round
  And I play Russian-roulette with a clown
Whilst having a lover’s affair
  With the acrobats of mid-air.
 
But then I wake,
  Or at least think I do
And it all seems but a dream
  Formed in the hours between night and day
When my heart is at its weakest.
  My carnival of conundrums
Is lost to the recesses of my mind once again
  Only to return
When my demon wants to play.
