Blurred Vision

I’ve been left stranded, demanded and self-bandaged…
Felt randomness encompass my damaged embodiment
Wielded misplaced thoughts long forgotten in toxins…
Forged rotten the begotten nonchalant tectonics’ move.

However crude the subdued vision is it’s forsaken…
Forever Mistaken as the correct path & traveled upon
But I tread ahead in broken soles w/o a plan or scheme
Weary & teary-eyed mortal with the corporate dream…

I thought to make money was life’s key to happiness…
For what seemed like generations I claimed domination
Procrastination came at me happily tapping my canopy
But I avoided the slapping and kept climbing frantically.

Years went by but my happiness eluded grasping hands
For what hand could understand what was really a man?
I walked home on cramped sidewalks where folks talked
I stopped near a beggar in fucked shoes with no socks…

He looked at me, and I returned the gaze for an eternity…
Time ticked by as the sun retired it’s crown to nights frown
My suit suited me exclusively, a rich heathen not a man…
Finally beaten I asked him a question : “Why do you smile?”

Upon reflection what’s perfection? Money and nice clothes?
Here’s this homeless man in bliss but with none of those…
I can’t understand it & he answers : “I use to be like you.”
Then he turned and walked back to a shack of old residues.

Then morning reared it’s dew drops & spewed new plots
Confused thoughts raced to control my skewed incisions
Intimate intentions usually explained my rash decisions…
& with his permission I fled the dread of my blurred vision.
