pampitude platitudes
Duplicated on my myspace page... and yeah, yeah... it's my usual pampy poetry, if you can call it that. (yes, I'm fishing for comments... who still reads this shit?)
Don't bother. Don't worry, I fear.
Fear
my belief for what happens next.
cringe
my actions of what happens, worst-case.
regret
what I have when I didn't try
anger
at myself, for once again I didn't do what I want
Hate, self-loathing.
It's a miracle that I'm functional at all
heh, being functional is easy...
just divert resources to where they're needed at the moment.
who cares about 4 year futures?
only those superficially vested in social conversing.
but...
Personal accountability
matters more than
personal indignities
at gas prices and ipod-distracted
commutes
Where's the time?
Where's MY rhyme?
How you spend you 1/4 hour
limelight
push and pull
tug and throw
inner-child is spoiled
by mochas, video games,
and idle times
you know what they say
about idle hands
devil's gonna build a horse
for Athens sake
But challenge your mythos
spar with self-defeat
rise up against efforts that stymie
especially those not constrained by
resource scarcity
Blend life and bend will
to your own needs
but by your means
do not forsake your fellow man
seek your fellow person
understand your common interests
because we're more alike
inspite those who persist
the differences
Uniqueness is key
but don't let than lock away
your brain
and especially your eyes
because we're all reaching
for the same blue-colored
skies
