Wordless Wednesday – Quiet Neighbors

Wordless Wednesday – White

Take a walk around the lake
and think about things

Not your heart rate
or your calories burned
but the things you push out

of your mind
all the rest of the time

Like where have all
the years gone

how much time have you
exchanged for cash

and when will you begin
to live?

I have these preconceived
ideas
of the world
and how it works

But now and again
I come up against some
boulder, some road block that
I cannot get around

Like a bone
pulled from pudding
something that’s just not right
that doesn’t belong

Then I must choose
if I will alter my thoughts
or the world

This decision is
often harder
than you would think
