The bored groan
Emerges
From my soul
As the time lags on
Into what seemed close
Now just distant hopes
Of improving my life and circumstance
Maybe today
The hope is to breathe
And dance
The bored groan
Emerges
From my soul
As the time lags on
Into what seemed close
Now just distant hopes
Of improving my life and circumstance
Maybe today
The hope is to breathe
And dance
Can these words rise
Up to the days that
Lie in the future
Around the corner
And flat on the pavement
Where the people walk
And talk
The poetry
Or words
Combines
To make meaning
Significant maybe
But timely
Indeed
If no one listens
And all we do is talk
We don’t see other perspectives
We don’t take other shoes
To walk
Through the life we live
And learn about each
Other
It just seems now
It’s one human
Vs
Another
A world I don’t know
Comes in a devastating
Thunderstorm
Of clashes
With people
Who’s intrinsic
Nature
I would hope to be
Good
However in a world
I can’t understand
How one human hand
Can be turned into a
Violent machine
Of descimation
Desicration
Is now
What I see
I’m not sure that
Is the world
Where I want to
Be
Building towers
For many hours
Days
Months
Years
From now
Those towers will sway
And fall
In a new lifetime
After us all
So everyday is an opportunity
To see where we can plant
Our towers that rise
From sky to sea
How to start
The off time
With a momentous
Move
To build out the old
Groove
With every note
And melody
Every tea and coffee
Sets a new standard
An new height
Everyday
Of my life
This news
Is nothing new
We just should have knew
That politics and corruption
Is all part of the stew
That these posers brew
In the private of lives
They steal the stars from the sky
But what do I know
I have no job
Nowhere to go
Just an itch to write
I am for truth
But rather write what I simply know
Starting to see
The boundary scene
Where and what will
Happen
To my life
Over the next year
My hopes
Fears
All playing
Out
In real time
Quick steps taken
In sequence
Of one another
While I wait out the direction
Slow the steps
Now with more intention
From here I
Go
Grow quickly
In this time
To reflect
For the time to
Show up
Will soon come
And that is when
The growth
Is shown
