Buying a New Day

Buying a New Day

A Poem by Crowley
"

Trying to pay attention...

"

Reflecting and not so softly on a life in limbo

Causes a person to check his pockets for coin

Buying clarity isn't the same as tripping over it

Cheap plastic focus glamour's the quick fix

Only to return a man to the starting blocks

Cursing the broken piece you can't find on Craig's List.

Reconstructed clarity can't or doesn't exist.. surely? There's always something lost in translation, perhaps. Still wondering..
