Rottistyl's Stuff

Middle Class
Simple men crash land beside the white
Crisscross of control.
Buying tickets of excuse with their blue eyes.
They will be the strangers among us,
And so the dream begins.
But mark my words,
They will die hard, not so easy as child’s play.

No, I don't necessarily feel that all simple men will crash and burn but
if they don't harden up that dangling simplicity at some point, they
may well find themselves back in their childhood. Not taken seriously
and told to go out and play. Not bad if you like being alone. A
Everybody Else Like It.
Old days gone, we believed in what we could d
We did what we couldn’t and appreciated a hand in doing it
Now a days here, there is no loser, no winner, no runner up.
Just separate degrees of winning. Coddle the ego, stroke
the can’t do’s . Bring the lazy ass in for a blue ribbon.
You say “everybody else liked it?” (Who would name their
kid Everybody?) Now, you expect it from me?
Don’t hold your breath.

Commentary:
I realize the world is not the same as it was in the 60's or 70's. Those days
when you could leave the house as a kid and be gone all day until
dinner and no one gave it a thought. hell, parents made you go outside
and locked the door behind you. Not good if you pee a lot, and have no
bushes and only one scrawny tree and the nearest bathroom is in the
church behind you but the door is locked.
Sorry, memories suck sometimes.
A Million Miles for Nothing
This life is all but dissipated
Ballooned and blown out long before its time
I have fought the discontent and selfish side steps
For a million miles., wearily I dread a million more
These eyes have blinded by will.
Shut this down now, for I have no cheek Left to turn.
Stop the presses and leave the oil can empty.
Turn the wick downside , then atrophy the dream.
If I had known I’d inhale this deep and not want to let it go.
If I had known that wall could never be chipped.
If I had known it’s all wrapped and dipped in indifference.
I would have stayed in Heaven.
