Unblind

Posted in Thankful observations on Mar 15, 2014 by Anthracite

I know who I am, I said to the wind
learnings I have carried as evidence
unsaid things can never find their time
and said things cannot be retrieved
but whose problem is that really
when all is displayed and seen
with arguments produced and won
you can never make the stupid unblind

Verisimilitude

Posted in Life on Mar 11, 2014 by Anthracite

One adjusts and tugs on their shirt
as if it makes all the difference
smoothing out imaginary wrinkles
while holding onto perceived dignity

The atmosphere has changed
and they try to deny it
with all their heart

The smile thrown their way
makes them smile in hopeless hope
but the cold is there and is the cause
of ones chin resting on their chest

Today you feel like a fool
for things done yesterday
words become history
and cannot be undone

Desperately claiming censorship
for something you don’t own
dwelling on the useless past
thus failing to enjoy the present
