A Poem
I drove in my car
I didn't drive far
Through the suburban neighborhoods
A friday night football game
A man and woman
With their son
Cruising the streets
Of my old neighborhood
Isn't it fun
My old childhood street
Is just a mile
Or so away
I'm not sure
What to do today
I'll go to the gym
And that's a bore
A life of seeing
What a snore
It seems
I am in this world
Just to see
My existence
A dull misery
Growing tired
Growing older
I have climbed
Mountain trails
And stood upon boulders
I have made some improvement
With my akward shoulder
America is quite a place
Life leaves a bitter taste
Conceptions of self
What am I
I gaze upward
Toward the sky
It's a dull reality
But I'm thankful
I am me
I miss my friend Liz
She understood
And cared for me
Now there is no one
To talk to me
