Happy New Year! It’s been nice taking a break but I really miss sharing my thoughts and musings with all of you.
I thought the best way to start this year was to share a poem that was inspired by the new year and two edibles.
Onto the poem…it’s called “new year”.
new year
new year
new form of
the lack of peace
that defines my life
that defines my existence
sometimes existing is not existing
it’s disappearing into someone’s idea of existing
being programmed into someone else’s world
being injected with someone else’s goals
being consumed by someone else’s dreams
my time and my labor materializes someone else’s dreams
my dreams disappear into the shadows
that is not existing
that is being a vessel
that is not peace
peace is manifesting my time and my space
into a dream for me
into a dream for everyone else
I hope you enjoyed new year and find peace this year.
❤️
