Today the world has defeated me
World one, me zero
I don’t know if I can fight the world
Much longer and keep loosing
To make a tiny dent in history
The tiniest dent in our momentum
The trajectory that is heading
Into the abyss
That has been my hope, my desire
To say something so clear
So well aimed
At the deep fissure that is barely holding
This terrible thing together
That it will quake
And then split apart
Only to fall back together again
In a new form where the pieces fit
The planet and the people
I need help
Or I need to quit the fight
Or I need a different strategy
Or
Or
Or
I’m bored with myself
I’m not interesting anymore
Not interested
Ellipses becoming circles
Smaller and smaller
A better nights sleep
Some relief from allergies
A little weight loss
Growing some food
A new friend or two
An opening in the world
Some form of hope maybe
A change in rhythm
I give up for now
Until the next outrage
or insight
Nuff said
