It can’t always be as
real as it feels, or as bad as it feels, but it is always concrete…
I have a strange way
of dealing with issues, and at my age, it is not a good thing to be hanging by
threads… even if I have understood the pattern…
Here is one…
Conundrum :
So there is was,
Lost in a hazardous pattern
Apparently going nowhere.
Sanity was beckoning
‘Make it happen, leave it there…’
Between two screeching synth lines
Vapors and scents intoxicating other senses
Between various thumbing beats
I chose one rhythm, and wondered
How long till I grow a hard shell
How long till my inner wind faces
The unequivocal truth I keep avoiding.
So here I am
And here is my challenge,
I disappoint me!
I am the ‘no’ and the ‘why not’…
I am the comical ‘could have’.
Here is my conundrum
Plain simple yet achingly familiar,
In its shattering irrelevance.
It might be pointless
But it will never be meaningless…
I want to beat that and breathe another…
