Tethered
Or free
Is the discussion on hand
Today
I don’t know
What is free
Anymore
So life is defined
By working within the
Confines
Tethered
Or free
Is the discussion on hand
Today
I don’t know
What is free
Anymore
So life is defined
By working within the
Confines
When will I be here again
In the same place
With a familiar thought
Or feeling
The work that has to be
Done
To get the same
Repeating
So instead
I take the breathe
Of the day
And breathe in
The whole feeling
Of living in this moment
Pushing ahead
In a world
Half alive
Half dead
Tomorrow is
Another day
Another chance
To be
Free
Another round
This time
It’s off kilter
But done in a way
That makes me happy
Today
Today was a blur
A blur for good days
Blurry days
All take the same amount
Of time
To live through
So be blurred
Days of mine
Any time
Life is blessed
When nothing
Goes right
In the time
Of no return
Its the only way through
To be blessed
With the hope
Of withers hopes
Brought
Anew
Not always
In full
Confidence
There was hope
To see brighter
Days
But not always
The case
In the moments
We take away
Wet days
On a Monday
In the rain
In LA
Keeping my brow
Dry
From the weather
At play
Grey
All the time
Today
We are all
Everything
All the time
Everywhere
We the human race
Are a creation of
Great complication
And confusion
Genius and
Master illusions
So be aware of this
That humanity comes in
All shapes and sizes
And can be a true
Beauty to behold
A single digit day in store
The ice clad water
Laps against the shore
Of Lake Michigan
On the southern front
Where industry meets
Earth
The cold blows over my skin
Again
And reminds me of my youth
When it wasn’t to hard
To live through the bitter
Cold
