SOME MYSTERIOUS NATURE

Folder: 
JOURNAL #9

replete yet all the while spent in my much too

intense mind

still, I continue to search tirelessly for something I can't seem to find

a small trace of truth perhaps laying just beneath lies

yet told

a place lost to one's youth now more precious than any nugget of gold

hearts and knives are never even moderately quick to agree

parts of pestered people's lives remain hidden from what it is of themselves

that they wish not to see

even just a speck of firm yet unaffected grace

a way to get back at the previous meandering for such a

miss marketed pace

a fraudulent swami in paper turbans

possibly offering some terribly trumped up advice

a slim chance at the big bucks with a felon

raconteur who just so happens to be holding hot dice

has society herself shot us all up with her own sad

version of some contraband street drug

and threw us in a massive hole together

the government only refers to as our down fall

that she herself dug

was it recent or long ago that we as a unit

started to noticeably recess

and who was it that said the time has come

to clean up this long overdue mutual mess

perhaps no one we really know

just you and I..............
