( in response to today's DAILY )





I gaze into your eyes !


I see myself

Struggling for existence

//

We are both so empty

Yet we say   WE  are      In  love

|||


The winds !

Blowing all the children into the oblivion

Of vacuous movie theaters

Where     WE   watch STAR WARS 7

& make our oppressors wealthy

and pretend that something REAL

is being said

///


Oxymorons of hateful love

We talk about each other as total strangers

••

We need each other but dare not show weakness !

::::

We run and hide in our own darknesses  and say we are LOST !!

•


We write our poems and are praised for our pain

But we will  NOT unite in LOVE

AND TRULY BE FREE !!!


:;:


We claim

THEY are oppressing US

But in reality

There is  no THEY

and there is no US

//


And another day

Filled with emptiness

Is wasted

NO      THEY   ..... MAKES .... US    DO THIS !!

)(



We will not address our fear


)(


We are not poets


Only victims of our own pure.


Self abuse
