Topic:
Lifepoems
|
The threads unravel, one by one
and no new ones are sown.
I am networked but not connected,
cocooned but not transformed
no metamorphosis, but a return
to the soft cradled womb of my becoming
For years I built
friends
family
lovers
career
But its so hard to maintain,
to keep all the balls in the air
and entropy never sleeps
Something always gives;
friends betray
family demands
lovers lose interest;
and work is a hollow lie
when it has no heart
The soft bleating of the herd
clinging to the familiar;
a frail barrier against
the predator thoughts that circle the boundary,
looking for the chink in the armour
- and there it is.
