Coffee

Limitless Consciousness

Every day I get up from bed, I am happy.

I get another shot at this so-called life.

I drink my morning coffee at peace with a smile on my face, playing chess.

Then I go outside and see all the mean faces staring at me.

Intoxicated, high, obnoxious, mean people with no goals or ambitions.

They try to throw their insecurities on me.

Why should I let them? Why should I let their demons come between my peace and me?

Why should I curse at them, If I say some bad word at them, it is because I have this bad word in me?

I’m blind to these kinds of people, mental midgets. I do not see them.

Therefore, that is why I just smile at them and let them wonder what is wrong with me.

      Yes, they do! We need to stop paying attention to the distractions surrounding us.

      Shame that you have to defend your integrity from such negative folk. Not a good environment.... perhaps time to move along before a knife pierces your singularity.

      'Therefore, that is why I just smile at them and let them wonder what is wrong with me.'
      indeed, but don't judge them too harshly - for lacking your insight dear poet,
      see for some yours may be the first genuine smile they've come across in blinked lightyears..
      a good read imbued with a life affirmingly, meaningful message

      well said L C! It's like the gambler song: You gotta know when to walk!
