Spiral Up

Written by

While lounging
Waiting out the rain
On the nondescript side of a building

This brick wall reminds me of you

~~~

Entitled to my time
So you feel

I'm not getting
The raw end of this deal

You'd like me to orbit your sun
No concrete evidence
Something tells me
I’m not the only one

You're a child
Looking for any attention

Center is something to earn

From this moment
Whatever you want
Is not my concern

You and this brick wall
Have a lot in common

You don't appear exquisite
No semblance of remarkability
I've examined… closely

Evidence suggests
You're dead inside
And I have no time
For things that have died

~~~

The sun is out
Rain clouds away

While I stroll from
The nondescript side of a building

I take a moment to thank the brick wall
