Some people are tied up tight
Continuous strands of geometric might
Complex knots at all the joints
All acute angles with purposeful points
Some people are flexible structures
Taut arcs of stretchy strands
Able to squeeze through the tight spots
Then simply take a deep breath to re-expand
Some people are less whole and square
More a ragged flag left too long in the wind
Streaming through life darting this way and that
Ends frayed and unfinished trailing behind
Some people cannot move on without finishing things properly
Tying up every loose end in a permanent way
Some people move on constantly with no end in sight
Less finished business
More anything but
