[ The Eyes Are Useless When The Mind Is Blind ]
[ They Can’t Help You See ]
[ That Your Actions @ The Moment Will Put You In
A Bind ]
[ A Closed Mind Will Never Let You Hear ]
[ When Something That Used To Be So Far Away Is
Now Near ]
[ When @ Times You Think That The World Stops @
The Tip Of Your Nose ]
[ You Will Find That That The Consequences You Get ]
[ May Be The Results Of The Choices That You Chose ]
[ On This Life Path That You Are Now Walking On ]
[ For If You Become Too Careless ]
[ You Could Wake Up One Morning & All That You Have
Grown To Love Is Now All Gone ]
[ Maybe @ The Fork In The Road In Your Life ]
[ You Quickly Went Left ]
[ When Everyone Else Went Right ]
[ It Is Not So Much That You Took The Easier Low
Road ]
[ But It Seemed @ Times ]
[ That You Made Everyone Around You See That You
Hardly Ever Pulled Your Whole Load ]
[ Society Is A Social Bunch ]
[ Always Loving Companionship For Dinner, Breakfast &
Lunch ]
[ A Possible Reason Why Society Is Bitter, Anti-Social &
Mean ]
[ May Be Because This Virus ]
[ Made Everybody Self Quarantine ]
[ Social Deprivation Can Have Very Harmful Effects]
[ It Can Cause Some People To Disrespect ]
[ Others That They Suspect ]
[ That May Have Contracted & Then Spreading This
‘VID19 Virus ]
[ That Is Harming & Killing Us ]
[ With A Closed Mind, So Goes Your Vision ]
[ A Closed Mind, Can Also Cause Division ]
[ Division Amongst The Family & Friends That Has
Always Stood By Your Side ]
[ You Also Will Find Out Who Has Constantly Lied ]
[ Lied, Because When The Water Gets Turbulent For
The Fair Weathered Friends They Are The First
To Bail ]
[ They Will No Longer Return Your Calls ]
[ Or Respond To Your Many Emails ]
[ They Will Look & Find ]
[ The Smallest Reasons ]
[ To Erase The Thoughts About You In Their Mind ]
[ & Then Become Devoid Of All Compassion ]
[ As They Leave You Behind ]
[ You Will Feel That Their Mind Has Shut Off & Shut
Down ]
[ So Where Once Your Eyes Saw Pretty Colors ]
[ All They See Now Is Grays & Browns ]
[ But Do Not Walk In Their Footsteps ]
[ & Then Do It To Others ]
[ Because You Know How It Feels To Be Left ]
[ By Your Mother & Brothers ]
[ A Closed Mind Prevents You From Growing
Throughout The Upcoming Days, Months & Years ]
[ It Is Not A Guarantee That A Closed Mind Prevents Tears ]
[ Open Your Mind, Eyes & Take The Headphones Off
Of Your Ears ]
[ & Your Head ]
[ Then Make A Stand To Listen To What Is Said Right
Here ]
[ Instead ]
[ Of Trying To Listen To What Is Going On Over There ]
[ For If It Involved You]
[ You Should Hope That They Would Share ]
[ It With You, Too ]
[ Don’t Say (NOPE) ]
[ & Jump Ship ]
[ Because You Felt There Was No Hope ]
[ Some People With A Closed Mind Will Stand There For
Awhile ]
[ & Give You Their Best Smile ]
[ All The While ]
[ Wondering What Is Going On Down The Road About A Mile ]
[ Then You Come To Realize Some Close Minded People
Never Intend To Change ]
[ They Feel That Would Be Doing Something Extremely
Strange ]
[ That Is When You Decide To Rearrange Your Priorities
& Make Better Use Of Your Effort & Time ]
[ If You Choose To Put One More Minute Into Them ]
[ That Would Be A Crime ]
[ Then You Can Turn Your Attention On Another
Mountain To Climb ]

(569)▪︎[ Lost In The Shades … 7•11•2021 ]
[ I Have Found That I Get Lost In The Shades Of Color Or
Lack There Of ]
[ Thankfully I Don’t Have To Be Asked Which One Of The Millions
Of Colors Do I Love? ]
[ Sometimes Things Look A Little Gray ]
[ Because Being Color Blind Does Not Change During
The Day ]
[ Night Time Does Not Get Any Better ]
[ Because Many Times In The Color Blind Book ]
[ I Cannot See The Number Or Letter ]
[ The Book Starts Out As Easy As Can Be ]
[ But Then I Could Not Get Past Page Number Three ]
[ Then Everything Went Blurry & My Eyes Got Lost ]
[ If I Ever Wanted To Correct My Vision ]
[ I Wouldn’t Do It, No Matter The Cost ]
[ I Know That My Favorite Color Right Now Is Pink ]
[ Sometimes I Get Colors Confused ]
[ Because Of The Different Colors Of Ink ]
[ Red & Black Sometimes Get Lost & Then Comes Out Looking
A Little Green ]
[ Those Are The Times When I Get Confused By Looking @
Something On The Small Screen ]
[ So One Day When I Was Young ]
[ I Was Showing Barbara A Picture That I Proudly Colored ]
[ But My Insensitive Bitch Of A Sister, Could Not Hold
Her Tongue ]
[ She Laughed & Laughed Right On Cue ]
[ She Was Laughing Because I Had Colored Half Of The Sky
Purple ]
[ & Half Of The Sky Blue ]
[ I Knew From That Point On ]
[ That My Ability To Tell The Differences Between Some
Colors ]
[ Was Long Gone ]
[ By The Wayside ]
[ Because I Was Seriously Color Blind ]
[ So Be It, Is What I Say ]
[ I Guess There Had To Come A Day ]
[ To Be Shone That Way ]
[ I Guess A Little Healthy Sibling Teasing Has A Good Meaning
Behind It ]
[ Even Though @ The Time ]
[ I Did Not Appreciate It, One Little Bit ]
[ I Do Like To Look Back @ That Interaction More Calmly ]
[ So I Look Back @ That Day More Fondly ]
[ @ Least There Is One Interaction That Was Remembered
Like That ]
