The world has forgotten about the moon, which is fine. Filled with holes and long-distance relationships never work out. The moon can do better.
Sometimes I look up into the sun and wonder what the flames are thinking. Imagination is a powerful tool. An ally. The sun never responds. It blocks the view. I can do better.
What happens when the dead come back to life? Will we still watch reality TV? Keeping up with the Corpses. The strange will inherit the Earth.
The glare of the office's lights are blinding. I wonder how many secrets the wall clock can remember.
My cube neighbor and I have an argument. I suggest that Spiderman is a terrible superhero, he shows me his Brown Recluse bite. I will still claim victory.
To the lady walking down N. Broadway, pretending that she is a bird. I get it, I want to fly as well. There is no will left to fight.
I will never reach my fullest potential. That is something I will remember forever. However, I am hoping for the best. A fool's errand.
Hope is something that rich men talk about, while flying through the clouds. The sun is their ally. Keeping the poor from dreaming.
My only plans for the New Year, are sitting on my couch, drinking beer, and watching the walls dance. Bubbles busting in celebration, while I fall asleep at 12:01 AM.
Thus is the life of an adult. Listening to the ruins of society, waiting for the witches to burn.
