when we see
reality
for what it is-
loyalists lying
to themselves
and everyone
asleep to wars
worlds away
weeping widows
wait for words
of hope
Empathy-
the illuminated veil
fell off again
in $3500 increments
scattered like stardust
across a national park
moonscape
but we all know
there's no beauty
in self inflicted failure
goddesses of grandeur
glowing gold in
forgotten fields of
harvested ideals
at once vibrant and
subtle
alive but
dying
water weight
and endless
refills
Everything
is a science
if you look
below
the surface
show
life
became
30 minute increments
of what needs to be
what is, and isn't
always another call
or payment
or chore
left all for me-
Saturn's whore
pure but misguided
love-
if one sided
standing in lines
drawn with methodical hands
droves of hoards of
mindless sunday
vacantly setting
another place at the table
to eat
to watch
to say
to sleep
awake and then again
casually pretending to know
the point
taut and tan
the island glow
of foreign bodies
haunt and hate
the dowdy imperfections
i carry like luggage
always traveling
never vacationing
long lines
of broken thoughts turned to theories
turned to thinking
thoughts
things are never
and always
what they seem
when seeming
is all
we see
so much
never enough
wanting makes fools
of feelings
yet still deceives
who believes
that things
will bring
fulfilling
