Melancholic Catastrophy

Melancholic catastrophy raining down on me
I am soaked as
nightfall brings the blistering cold
where still i'm stroked with envy
for the radiating stars out there in space

Melancholic catastrophy staring right at me
I am choked as
wisdom had gone wandering off
could just for once it faltered
where the temperamental thoughts reside

There's not much to reconsider
as Jack came tumbling after
broken bones and shaken up
still always back on time for supper

Melancholic catastrophy crumbled down on me
I am broke as
conscience takes a sudden fall
though still my mind is wary
for the recollected thoughts inside my head

Melancholic catastrophy matters not to me
I awoke as
audience in the crowd applauded
here I saw myself drowning
soon as gravity had broken hold on me

There's not much to reconsider
as Jack came tumbling after
broken bones and shaken up
still always back on time for supper
