A shift of…

The time that once was fuel for motivation and spirit is now just a clock.

you can read it

it tells the time and states the numbers proud and elegantly

but a clock is but a place holder farce 

a surrogate metaphor for time its self

in my life, Time no longer feels like a rabbit to chase out of instinct and competitiveness

it is but a metro-dome

sounding out the tic toc rhythm counting down the seconds of my legacy

long ago the last ember was carried by the conspiring weight of the wind

up in to the blue sky where it lost

its self…

its heat…

its way…

and reduced to ash

it vanished into the wind it self

time was reduced to

…tic

…toc

…tic

To err on the side of human

Today I hated someone

Today I played a bigot and a racist

Today I elevated myself, my race, my sex, my orientation, above all others

My religion is right all others are wrong

My way of life is right and all others are wrong

My “right” is right, and all others are wrong

Unless of course

You ask someone else

For everyone hates

And every one is a bigot

And everyone is a racist

To some extent

It just depends on who is defining the words

But to err on the side of human

Is to know in your heart of hearts

That you love your fellow man

I wish it was a lie, the person that peers back at me from the glass of the mirror looks older then he should, like his youth was drained by forces of time and hurt. Like supple skin and six pack abs have been robbed from him the last time he blinked and in a cruel twisted joke were replaced with the pitted cheeks and girth of a much older man.  I wonder if I am just vain in thinking it should look like something else, Or if it can somehow now be changed. My life seems to conspire against me, I feel as if somehow I am already dead, because the image in the mirror is no longer one I recognize. Am I old enough yet to accept that I will one day die and everything from this point to that is simply grasping at the wind?

mislabeled

One upon a time I thought that meaning was purpose

That life existed to extract a calling from it

To take that badge and pin it to my flesh

And to walk around proudly with it displayed for others to know who I am

But soon the trail of blood from the pin started to stream down my chest

And soon people only noticed the blood and not the badge

And soon people started to only know me as the man with lines of blood running down his chest

And soon that was who I became

But now as I look in the mirror

I can’t remember what the badge even meant

And all I see is the blood myself

But it represents only what I have become

And not who I am

Indecisive

I have lived my years being me, never really knowing who that is. I have completed tasks feeling uncompleted and have left lose ends to dangle in a breeze of complacency. I have fulfilled a purpose unknowingly, fucked up the end result of someone else’s destiny and found the last piece of the puzzle on the floor behind the desk moments after I gave up looking for it. To say the least, I am unsure of everything except for the things I know by heart and my heart always hurts with a feeling of being clueless of the things my mind can recite without looking at the notes. It all just seems… pointless sometimes but I am afraid I can never really say which times to be exact. I really just do not know.
