But how, and how much?
Society argues
On the firmness of touch
Compulsion or need
The collectivist spirit
Versus genomic greed
Guilt versus conscience
Life trapped or freed

Eking through
Day after day
Not quite here
Not quite there
Stuck in a way
It's not for lack of trying
To escape the fray
But how does life get easy
With struggles to show worth
The only way to succeed
Is with a silver spoon at birth

With struggles to show worth
The only way to succeed

And yet
My fingers curled
Of their own accord
Into a fist
The act of reaching
Just entrenched
The reasons for
My distance
Now open palmed
I swear I'll change
But the hackles rise
I'm on defense

Bitter cold
Frosty windows
Breathing slow
Drifting dozy
Letting go
Ancient mem'ry
From days ago
Pacing moments
To ticking clocks
Mete out dreams
To sleep at all

Still awake
Wanting for
A better take
A better view
Real or fake
That makes some sense
That cleans and rakes
Away the grime
The building waste
Breaking free
Of the growing weight

because to wait
implies inaction
The weight
of hesitation
builds to traction
Dragging down
this life this frown
sunk by fractions
So instead
in waiting's stead
strive instead for fragments
The beating whole
its abysmal goal
only distraction

shush your mouths
the beast is feeding
in our house
hear its breathing
slurping growls
creaking floorboards
its closer now
escape by dreaming
there's no way out
close your eyes
and shush your mouth

not reaching, helping, thinking
the constant wish to be
to make a better day
the guilt gets overwhelming
for acting to survive
for shying from hard answers
turning blind to lies
and as the guilt is drowning
suffocating life
the guilty go on guilting
the people getting by

For what, for why
The planet spins
Stars roam the sky
And yet, persist
Despite, despite
Find a way
In spite, in spite
Rage within
Brimming fire
Living embers
Breathing pyres

Art?
Movies?
Better to just sleep.
To find in dreams:
Randomized abominations
Generative nonsense
Wild nightmares
Relevant to this lived weirdness
Pieced together from our souls
Filled with shadows
And half-remembered song
Unfiltered by the censors
Of marketable rebirth

figments of hoarders
the richochet act
of sending souls back
for no other reason
than an inborn lack
absence makes fonder?
perhaps for attacks
as absence of kindness
just wounds till fade black
