Same Difference
 
everything makes a difference,
everything makes a same
 
table for five for dinner,
summer’s intermittent rain
 
people go wandering on side roads,
people go places at home
 
and all that is transitory melts
like a big ol’ ice cream cone
 
everything changes but the changeless,
nothing stays the same
 
time itself is a healer
some people can’t be tamed
 
everything makes a difference,
everything makes a same
 
for some people nothing is everything
and nothing stays the same
 
every which way you look at it
the seasons live one long loop
 
close your eyes and you’ll see it,
summer’s intermittent cold soup
 
some feel it’s all about sharing,
some think it’s all a game
 
everyone makes a difference,
everyone makes a same
