Portents II

Eugene S.

Another lonely bar table
Square clean napkins & dirty IPA
Forever free in my solitary way

A detritus of words around me
Humanity's ever flowing minutiae
Expounding everything they say

I used to worry about them all
Back in my youthful days
For back then I was always afraid

That when it all came crashing down
In this world's most horrid ways
They would all have a heavy price to pay

But what about me
Where would I be in the fray
Think I just found dismay in my IPA

    there's a distinct difference between being alone and feeling lonely
    a solitary existence may be a temporary need of personal preference
    at choice crossroads in our lives path
    since its too hard to hear ourselves - think
    when busily juggling other's pinons: of ourselves..
    a good read, thanks for sharing

    I tend to embrace everything as an observer, but reality sentences me to something else entirely...
