Chirp Chirp go the crickets
and it's a warm 10:55 while
I hear the faint glow of traffic
echoing
off of houses and
I guess the mountains
I think I must have lived out this day
A thousand times before
at the very least
Tired without real reason
bored without a motivation
and frightened
of that darkness
the unseeable beyond the street lamps
and fires burning
in the valley below
Friends and family scheme
to find a better life
and do all they can to change things
unsuccessfully it seems
For with time I watch the results of their aspiration
and the ultimate end to mindlessly rubbing their legs together
in a last ditch effort to find
something
Blunt is vulgar in poetry
but i find it
...difficult
to see the beauty of words
It seems this place
has dulled that sixth sense
of inspiration
and everything is gray
