The Impossible Class.

The Impossible Class.

A Poem by Maxwell M.
"

things that make us go "bump" in our lives.

"

i can only feel this!

 

and it's anything but real.

this can be called an exaggeration of longing.

a quick step short of hope.

 

we can only wait to get it.

we can only wait to go home.

these bending trees aren't the right shade of green.

not the ones i used to remember.

but we will wait!

wait for that time of year!

when things are restored to their natural order!

 

but it's all we have.

and i won't wait on their convenience.

"we'll sit and we'll wait,

 for nothing to get done.

 surprised and anxious,

 we'll just get on.

 and for the while,

 we're torn asunder.

 political confusion,

 we'll try to get on."

 

and we can't run from you!

and we can't run from you!

but we can break from this routine.

and while we wait for you,

we're going to find our own damn way.

it will be difficult, it will be difficult!

but while you sit upon your thrones,

we die from this stalemate!

you've only left us no other choice.

you've only left us no other choice.
