TEN AROUND TOMBSTONE...

TEN AROUND TOMBSTONE’

^© Michael Franz Whitby

Still trying to find oneself’

Still trying to figure out what really happened

Still having the allowance of only…

…ten’ around tombstone’

Ten steps in any direction rounding final earthly destination

That’s the given quest in steps for salvation

Because at this stage…

…obstruction is a way of existence

This captive lost soul

Being held prisoner by wrongful actions of earlier period deeds

Of a past life’ terrible script…

…still trying to find oneself’

Still trying to figure out what really happened

Still having the allowance of only…

…ten’ around tombstone’

Ten steps in any direction rounding final earthy destination

A dark ending for acquired continuous bad judgments during the living…

…culture of revenge " miserable choices

Never once considered plotting new course

Not knowing when to file into simmer mode…

…restrict actions based in violence

So now being puzzled

As one cannot avoid the repeat…

…ten’ around tombstone’

And ghostly tales at every hornstone

Not always appropriate neuron’ for any of questionable age

Comment on wraithlike vision:

‘…something mysteriously unidentifiable leaving confused mind with disturbing memories’
