Pain, hatched lines of delirium

The connection with humanity

Aching and lounging

Debilitated laziness, pooling unseen

When? Doesn’t matter.

Only, Smile!

Momentous times astound

Waxing eloquent on useless ideas

Bringing thoughts and deeds to fruitless efforts

Wondering why

Shallow breaths of twilight

Lap upon the shores of idle minds

Asking for, demanding, azure substances unknown

Individuals acquiesce to the desires of the self

Glazed eyes focusing and re-focusing

On particles lost in the mind

Of feather fraught with frictionous fictions

Narrowed eyes judge

Bemused and bemuddled minds

Lying in a state of emasculated consciousness

Scream loudly and obnoxiously into the void

I slip into a dream to escape

They find me.

My worries hound my thoughts all day and at night,

When that sweet embrace of unconsciousness cradles me in her arms,

The hounds of worry leap and snarl and I am lost.

I awake to worry. It is everywhere. I am not enough.

Awaiting the ideas of selfishness to come forward and show me the way. The way beyond the idle thoughts that drift in and out of my mind like most and fog. A fog of war that is fought by myself against foes unknown from all but me. I strive to fit into the fold of societal norms that ask the selfish roaring needs of the soul. Solace and salaciousness overwhelm me and all that remains is the shell of a man.

Constant whining emits

Tangled thoughts enlighten and enraptured

And cry loudly into the night

Asking questions left unsaid and unrepentant

Receiving more. Wanting less.

Wistful thoughts

Mal-aligned malignancies

Give thoughts and prayers to those who do not

Begetting beliefs begotten bygones

Wondering which way is up
