It Controlled Me

Control is a foolish notion
I wanted control, 
but; here I am,
just wanting control...
whilst it controlled me
with the type of control a drip-drip-dripping tap has over you,
or control like how hair product controls your hair.

The swans were out of control and in a flap,
the shoreline controlled the wrecked boat.
so I thought I'd control it...

I wanted to control it...
but; it controlled me
