conspiracy

its his own grassy knoll
minus the shell casings
how many have taken their best shot
and missed
he only feels the hits
each time he is cut off in traffic
every night when he sits down to dinner
and the phone rings as tines are palette cleaned
he calls it a conspiracy
physician call it delusional
most call it
madness

he skipped his inner child
moved right into middle life
before a razor grazed his face
his breath flammable, his eyelids inflamed
his hands handy, his mind is unmanned
a soldier in an army of one

his jumpsuit stiching says
JACK
but
that's just the beginning…..

Interesting and yet puzzling poetry. I liked this line

he skipped his inner child
moved right into middle life
