Sadness
is a comfort blanket
Pity
is deceptive
and compassion
is just apathy/'/s
never ending
bottomless pit
where our empathy hangs
at the end of a rope
That we made
So we could try
To fit in

Ah yes, crossing the fine line between genuine care and compulsory-sympathy (something we have been taught to do lest we appear to be bad human beings). Another great write. Blessings,

Strong finish to this (at first) dreary read. But the mood of the poem changed for me.
And those last lines......some thought provoking words to be sure. I/'/m still pondering even as I write this.
I like your moniker, by the way. Back in 2010 or so, I had some custom tee shirts made up. I found a picture of Obama that was almost identical to a similar picture of MLK, the one where he is looking up beyond us all, from his speech, "I have a dream/'/.
My tees were white, with that pic of Obama all in black, with the words below him stating, "I Have A Drone".
I have one left. Well, that has nothing to do with nothing, but I thought you may get a kick.
Good job here, my man.

I found a friend in you,
declaratively speaking
Jim:
"Well, it/'/s a blame ridicklous way, en I doan/'/ want to hear no mo/'/ /'/bout it. Dey ain/'/ no sense in it."
The way people talk with different languages and different dialect.
Tom:
"Looky here, Jim; does a cat talk like we do?"
puppets on a string, pretending to be happy puppets, as sad as the string.
what is the sample size in the understanding of ---
Peace! |

Lets hope to be remembered by leaving something of value behind us.
New ideas (like new humans) take time to lose all their sharp edges but eventually we wear them down to suit us. |
