Weighted Comparisons

The roads glisten in the lonely lamplight

Divided by calculated minds.

With the whisper of events and selfs past by

I look longingly back at my crimes. 

 

For the present is burdened with real-time concern

Yet does not infect the past.

The complacency of life, rather than fretful control

Had not, apparently, last.

 

Where shall the freedom be found

To reject the future for a while?

I do hope that the freedom of disregard

Is something I may soon reconcile.

"the freedom of disregard"

Is it me or does this poem emanate from this line? Enjoyed the syntax of "and selfs past by"
