Desperate Man
– of traces unclear –
Desperate man Arrives in fear, Looking at life Traces unclear, To face despite He cannot hear, Thus, he writes Hoping it bears, Some hint of sight Marks he’d be there!
ode to coherence of clarity…

Poetry on a canapé 
Powerful. And scary, the combination desperate…in fear.
Somewhere between being promised a rose garden and not recognizing it, thus so focusing on yet ignorant of unclear, to the benefit of man our controllers, we maintain desperate. Alas and getting used to everything is indeed a very human functional habit, much to our “laissez-faire” consistent tendencies. Me first…but now old enough to recognize it and shake loose, I think!
We want to know that we have been “here.” These words were especially poignant – “Marks he’d be there!”
If but to to give sign we’d been around, for they who cared to know we had gone.
