(178)▪︎[ Desperation … 2•27•2021 ]

[ Right Now, It Seems That Desperation Fills The
     Air ]
[ & I Am Finding It Hard To Care ]

[ I Don’t Want To Succumb To This Virus ]
[ & Lay Down In Front Of A Speeding Bus ]

[ This Virus Has Complete Control ]
[ & It Has Me Trying To Claw Myself Out Of This Hole ]

[ Will Someone Throw Me A Rope? ]
[ Will Anyone Put Their Arm Around Me & Help Me Cope? ]

[ Giving Me Empathy ]
[ Not Pity ]
[ Or Sympathy ]

[ I Need A Phone Call From My Best Friend ]
[ So I Am Not Alone Towards The End ]

[ The End Of The Day, Week Or My Life? ]
[ Will My Eyes Stay Open While I Am Watching The Fading
     Light? ]
[ Will My Wife ]
[ Help Me Fight? ]

[ Sometimes I Feel That She Is Oblivious To What I Am
      Going Through ]
[ Because She Has A Handful Of Her Own Problems
     Too ]

[ So She Might Have Blinders On, That May Narrow Her
     Sight ]
[ She Has No Ability To See From Side To Side ]

[ So I Am Back To Being Alone ]
[ Eating Alone ]
[ Sleeping Alone ]
[ Drinking Alone ]
[ & … Dieing Alone ]

(419)▪︎[ Oh, One Of Those … 5•18•2021 ]

[ As The Desperation Sets In ]
[ I Sit Back & Say To Myself ( NOT THIS AGAIN? ) ]

[ The Battles Wage On & On & On ]
[ My Brain Feels Like A Small Ping Pong ]

[ Bouncing From One Side, To The Other ]
[ I Wish That I Had Someone On Speed Dial To Bounce Ideas
     Off Of ]
[ Like My Brother ]

[ But Was He The Best Listener In This Kind Of Situation ]
[ Because I Felt That He Had A Form Of Infatuation ]

[ So I Am Back @ The Starting Gate ]
[ Looking @ The Date ]

[ While I Stand There Pondering ]
[ My Mind Is Wandering ]

[ What Is @ The End Of The Rainbows? ]
[ I Actually Have Never Met Someone Who Knows ]

[ Back To My Thoughts ]
[ The Ones That Have Me Tied Up In Knotts ]

[ What Is The ( THIS )? ]
[ Something That I Constantly Miss? ]

[ The ( THIS ) Is The Constant Subjects That We Go Back To ]
[ The Ones That I Am Never Able To Work Through ]
[ It Is The Dance That Me & You ]
[ Constantly Do ]

[ It Is Our Wednesday ]
[ The One That Some People Call ( HUMP DAY ) ]

[ The ( THIS ) Are The Subjects That We Can’t Get Over,
     Through, Around Or Pass ]
[ The Subjects That Always Turns One Of Us Into The
     Proverbial ( ASS ) ]

[ Oh, Those! ]
[ Yes The ( THIS ) Are ( THOSE ) ]

[ Oh ]

~ The End ~
