Connection 2

A Poem by Ben

Its just a long ornate frivolous pursuit

Semantic matinee innate contextual loop

Full and half and perspective based

Too boringly stupid it is, thus we improvise

 

And its dramatic for me in how much I love to say its dramatic

Its serious and I know people all over this land mass

And they are animals, who are living lives

And its real to them, and it matters to me

 

I should stop there, but a levee has to breathe

If not break, if not gushing and relief

This barricade, this feisty sassy finicky rate of firing

This overflow, this draught

Those incongruencies, that painfully obvious

Those should have beens would have dones

Those regrets one by one

 

This overcoming, that test

A constant pleasantness, stream of delight

Curiosity, discernment the right dash of 

Letting things be, letting enough be enough, being good enough, happy enough with things

And with yourself for a minute, or eternity

 

 *discarded/ abandoned poem from earlier today, ill tac on after:

            "they are right and wrong, they are right and wrong,

but don't ever put them down, you need them, and they need you

 

it is an investment, it is a future day

the bone in the yard, the eventual, the ______ more years

it is also right now, the nuts and bolts, pragmatic minimum wage

 

it is the having fun now, it is the protecting yourself for the later day

it is the sacrifice the putting some things aside but also"
