empty space
unseen potential
realized
ymmiJ 2h
shrimp and grits
five o'clock bourbon
lowcountry life
ymmiJ 2h
piece of peace
no one ever bought
war profits
ymmiJ 5d
inside solitude
cocooned from absurdities
their folly appears
ymmiJ 5d
just one more
ones' never enough
I'll take two
ymmiJ 5d
I imagine being a fish in a fishbowl
Not knowing I am a fish in a fishbowl
But a fish nonetheless, in a bowl
There are other fish in the fishbowl
But they seem as oblivious as I
blue fish swim with other blue fish
reds the same, swimming with reds
We got bottom feeders, ******* up ****
top feeders thinking they are the ****
With their snooty up turned mouths
The middle hears it from both
Those poor bottom feeders
Those greedy top feeders
Imagine being a fish in a fishbowl
With all this turmoil
And then just to stir the ***
Food falls from the ******* sky
ymmiJ Nov 8
death becomes some
living as already dead
never seeing life
