A poetic response to "The sound of the hollyhocks"

What are you escaping from in life?
Is it the harsh memories of your wife?
Is it the money you've always had?
Or is it the betrayl that made you sad?
Is it the flowers that keep you up at night?
Or is it the solitude that gives you fright?
You often ask what's wrong with the world
but all they say is what's wrong with you.
You will stop at nothing to achieve what you want.
But what if what you want is to forget.
People can distract themselves all they want.
They gamble, drink , smoke.
He's a pretty good example of that.
let go of all the things that hold you down.
let go of all the people who make you frown.
live your life as you want it to be.
Or else you'll end up with a belt around your neck
and the world under your feet.
