possibilities
4 years ago

I left in search of something
turned out to be nothing
I came back, 8 months later
to reclaim my post as myself

it didn't work

4 years ago
the cities were full of possibilities
endless in nature and science
modern in class and wealth

possibilities have become shackles
opportunities have become inhibitors
it's not working

4 years ago
I left it all for this
Is this really worth all the effort?

the further ahead I get
the farther away I become
the further away I go
the closer it is that I get

but to what?
4 years is a long time

    I really like this, Mikey.

    I wish I could add a more thoughtful interpretation, but I'm not really thinking right due to the fact that I haven't showered in f'ng three days and counting.

    well megs, you know you can shower over here whenever, and as for hog anus... that's a birthday bill that I can handle.

    And yes, that was one of the 3 good birthdays. The other was before we met - I want to say it was either 19 or 20... When you get to be my age, they all just kind of blend together. No, it was 20, cause I had just gotten my job offer FROM Wallace, and I was excited about it.

    Hey - why the fuck am I getting all poetic all of a sudden? Perhaps I'll become famous by leading a band with a chick and an asian, only to destroy my fame by making weird music and then write a book of poetry dedicated to god in my mid-30's... what do you think?
