A TICK PAST REGRETFUL

A TICK PAST REGRETFUL

A Poem by Bill Grimes Jr.

 

Time must pass
This I know
I don’t care about its passage
Never have my friends
Most likely
I never will
Still
Boredom is my nemesis
Conceptual disillusion
Inconsequential factors
Beyond the ambience
A tick past regretful
Seems so intrusive
For I have no fear of death
Nor Satan’s kicking breath
It’s me I battle daily
Clinging to ghosts of yesterday
Reality
Melancholy passion play
No room for loss of balance
Perched atop a razor blade of chance
I sleep in increments
Dream so vividly
Foster deep thoughts of romance
Practice acts of kindness
Sincerity
The key
Deepest part of me
So it shall be…….

So it shall be��.

I ask God every day to allow me to feel His will for me and not mine. It is because of this that I pursue what I pursue and leave alone what I need to leave alone.

Wool gathering... what ifs, shoulda-woulda-couldas.... consequences, misdirections..... or "regrets, I've had a few but then again too few to mention" Ahhh age and wisdom....
