Enough Rough Stuff
I remember a time
when I wasn't so blind.
Where fear had no space in the house that is mine.
It wasn't just me that was thriving, we were all diving.
With the means to make it all ours without hurry or worry.
We could think and we could do and we did.
Then some large hammer came down
and knocked us around.
I'm still reeling from the beating
to our collective feeding
of our needing to reach goals of
American Dreaming.
I want to see us rise
above this unsupervised demise
To get back to that state
of simple debate
As to what color bed spread
would go best with the head
of hair of a new love affair
blooming with ideas for more.
It's been too long since many have felt free
of financial debris.
We must remember who are
So we can keep reaching far.
Grab hold of what's dear
and steer ourselves clear.
Make way for the purples and pinks of the day.
It's the doubt that this brought
that subsequently taught we should accept
the worst as our new turf.
Enough of this piss.
We're better than this.
Bring forward the life that we ordered.
