SOCIAL ATROPHY


Candy cane perdition,
Ah, that acid trip reflux...
Come to it's fruition,
Reality just plain sucks!!!

Semi-average, only,
Intelligence falters.
Vindicates the lonely
On sacrificial altars.

Toxic confirmation,
I take the stickling probe.
Permanent vacation,
Within this four walled globe.

Fallible surmounting,
The recipe of an ulcer...
A thousand sheep and counting,
‘Er I stand the repulser.

Somewhere along this line,
I lost track of my ducks.
But forgiveness is Divine,
So I kick it to the Crux...

Rise to the occasion,
All damnation before me.
Wait on Procrastination,
I'm but Social Atrophy.


Michael Anderson

 For all behind was dark and drear,
And all before was night and fear.
How many hours of night or day
In those suspended pangs I lay,
I could not tell; I scarcely knew
If this were human breath I drew.

Lord Byron

Another Great One Michael.

Reality sucks....at times.....not always.


Daniel

 The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, not the kindly smile, not the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship."

At times my friend it does much more than that. but not enough space allowed here.
Joel.

 I howl a mornful song, that echos within my chambered heart, for all to read? nay for all to feel.
