A punch in the gut

A punch in the gut

A Poem by Ben

How is it?

How clued in, much do you know the ropes
Inwardly- wharves, obstacles, confusion
out- loops, glitches, failed freelance

Awareness, access, a chance
Zombie repression, ghost denial
Walking dead

unhealthy eyes to see an unhealthy mind
do you not know morning, noon and night
Do you not know very much is lost, for medium wealth

Who is it up to?

Do you see yourself
even as you are in an excessive or false stride
even as the usual unsurprising world stirs you up

It is all the same, deviation 
inner dispersion
trite superfluous feigning, burdened consciousness

Who are you?

Its hard to identify
not the only one
but its an important word, identity

I don't care about what you don't care about
tell me about what you care about
things mattering to you matters

Otherwise, words all blend into one
meaningful and valuable and priority, whisked away
no volition, intention, will or free will

Not to have an authority complex
or rail against the man, bad weed laws and corporations forever
but to be your own master

a troll guard, inter-police, self police system
hurling concepts, proportion, spectrums of meaning
to the obscure abyss of the back of your mind

important notions, concepts considerations and understandings
zero in, discern, humbly enjoy anecdotes and witty exchanges
broaden out, grow out as a sun-avor, extend like the end of never-ending-lightning

Symbols emerge, designated groups of scenarios and phenomena
types, archetypes, symbols, maybe even an entire language or speech or book in them
