Can we shake ourselves awake?

On minds remembering misdeeds,Coming with torment.And the satisfactions of comforts,Are long overdue and keep the many waiting.No one who suffers in grief…Completely leaves it alone!And no hand glading back slapping politician,Can patch these pains in painless campaignsTo gain support for change and majestic opportunities!These are not the days,For dispensing ‘goose bumping’ promises.Dimple smiles revealing flawless…

There is a truth that thrives.Eyes squenched from darkness,As sunlight hits.They become witnesses of others…Living their lives as if those coming out,Had not and do not for them exist.Doing their best to catch up with the times,They find themselves lost…With minds left behind.And holding onto values oxidized from rust…They are thrusted into a world,Unknown to…

Those who spoke of it,As it was and still is…Have long been ostracized,For making comments…Considered by many,To be negative!And not reflective,Of the good side of life!A quality long on the downslide.Well…Now that everyone affected,Can no longer rely on denials.Generations of waste…Seems to be stuck on pretentious faces.Even still no one admits,Just how deep in sssshhh…quicksandThey…

On edge and distant.Resisting to admit…There are issues.With some kept,To qualify one’s purpose.One’s wish to be burdened by self conflict.And a remorse that bites…To expose a bitterness.One often invites to a welcomed visit.A patience unconditional…That comes to one in love,With someone like this…Usually goes unnoticed.To eventually be dismissed,And taken for granted…By the comfort of it…

Even embalming themWould preserve a waste of humanity.And why spend time discussing their kind dieing?They have long been in a state of rot.Can’t you tell by the way they smell?

I saw ‘it’ look through my front windowAnd in the backyard ‘it’ sat on the fence!It was odd…The falling leaves October once coloredLaid waiting to be raked.And there a Bluejay sat…Staring in my face!And this was after Thanksgiving Day!I got the message!Hot times come for the ones,Who didn’t do a slow burn early!
