Little bit of Trying.

Little bit of Trying.

A Poem by SuicidePact.

Try a little bit harder,

reach a little further,

trying is the recipe to success,

It’s the only way for you to reach your best.

So why have we become lazy?

Why do we always take the road that’s easy?

That is my question,

can you afford the answer?

So true. We as humans are afraid of the challenge of trying, so we take the easy, downhill ride instead up the uphill walk that we should just to try. If we fall, we fall, we slide back down. But we should still get back up. Most of us don't. If, perhaps, we fall down, we let ourselves slide to the bottom, to the end, and give up on climbing back up. Very good. Well written and it sets up a scenario that everyone can relate to and understand, and, as your last line says, most of us fear to give the answer. Wonderful!

It is sad but I would say the vast majority of people these days do not struggle against life, but resign themselves to false images of security. In this day and age we have the army of mediocrities leading the multitudes of fools; I would say that every generation of mankind has been similarly inclined - as a species we seem to loathe exceptionalism - but I will say that previous generations had a sense of something more, an inkling, and in having that inkling they are better for it. We, what do we have? Our era steels itself to attain the absolute and authority, and with it security and luxury; it wants to transfigure the world before having exhausted it, to set it right before having understood it. Whatever it may say, our era is deserting this world.

This piece is written like a short sermon, with an inherent arrogance in every line, the narrator has asked the question and looks down on those who do not do similarly. A position I can relate to. It possesses a nice rhythm to it without appearing forced or like it is rushing you onwards. It is steady and sure. I enjoyed that fact.

Thank you for sharing.

Regards,
A.E.
