the lifelong longing
for some elusive else or more
is it a greener grass thing?
a spiritual emptimess?
plain old materialism?
a wee bit coveting?
or just too much tv?
i am not alone
we all are not alone
yet... too many of
the billions of us feel so...
in this teeming petri
too much time to what?
think? dream? ponder?
fighting to survive...
oh, that the fighting
was muscle and brawn
sweat and sinew
sword and shield
(the word drone perfectly misfits)
no that side of the fence
is hard scrabble where
too many die too young
this side is all steel, glass,
and concrete thoreauly
in self-help desperation
somewhere under the rainbow
