Another very relatable piece. Inspiration not recalled or just nothing special.
BLIND EYE
c2019 Brian Beecher
On a Friday night she felt like Running away from it all A strong feeling of restlessness Was gnawing at her soul
On the next night she would stay home And bake his favorite cherry pie He would end up turning a blind eye He would end up turning a blind eye
Needing space and freedom Was nipping at his heels Don’t do anything too hasty She would say upon appeal
Work has had him going in circles Yet his love got her a high She would end up turning a blind eye She would end up turning a blind eye
He mistreated many women His public persona fake Powers that be not quite sure Which direction they should take
Folks may be alarmed when the fog lifts But until then he would get by With the powers turning a blind eye With the powers turning a blind eye
Now our middle class is broken Our world is not quite what it seems While the snake oil salesmen ask us What are our goals and dreams
When our heads are spinning in the clouds We can’t make time to sit and cry With the public turning a blind eye With the public turning a blind eye

"If one man can do it, any man can do it. It is true. But the real question is, if one man did it, are you willing to do what it takes to do it as well?" –Brian Austin Whitney
