the prophecy of muddle-some

the plague of genetic destiny 

is a finely written epitaph. 

success, as a mind state, 

is the accumulation of side effects.

the sense of open focus 

is on spotting redundancy 

while love is the playing field 

gasping for light and players.

living is an expanding narrative 

on every reactive account.

for breathing seems like 

an endless supply of ammo

and sexuality is incidental tallies 

to balance the books.

even movement of itself 

is a prayer against fear

while music, driven by lyrics,

is just popularized unconscious venting.

there is the plea to be aware 

beyond experience-junkie impressions.

the silent callout is,

either 'take steps or grow wings', 

is in everyone's face.

we all labor 

as parasitical thought, 

fearing the worst 

as becoming the last to know.

the integrity of our self-consciousness 

is a confounding rhetoric,

where conclusions thrive, 

as the raw materials of, 

"we are so ever trapped", 

wrapped in bundles of urgency.

nothing on the news menu

are we hungry to eat.

but if it's not too much trouble,

some discomfort and angst

with a side order of malaise

will get us through the day . . .
