Time and time again
I’ve wanted to just
Throw in the towel
And walk away
Why must we be
Responsible adults?
Why can I not just walk away?
Because
To walk away
Is to lose everything
My home
My car
My motorcycle
My computers
my toys
I’m tired
Bone weary
Of unrealistic expectations
of mean spirited people
in positions of control
of people payinglip service
to kindness,
wholeness,
gratitude,
authentisism,
peace,
love
I’m tired
Of needing to work now
For a future…
For what?
To eat cat food in my dotage?
Why can’t something
Anything
Be easy?
Just once?
Fuckit
I’m going to bed
Tomorrow
As they say…
Is another day
