Writer, poet, possessor of 2 cents, blogger, recovering corporate animal and eternal student of life, who harbors a firm belief in his Grandmother's mantra that:
"People need to get off of their rump and do something".
All while keeping in mind that a cheering section will only get in the way.
Embarking on a path of sympathy without fortifying ourselves with empathy, is tantamount to having the key to the bottom lock while forgetting the key to the top.
And…
Expressing dismay – that you’re still out in the cold because the door has the audacity not to budge.
In a world where the foundation is skewed towards the slow erosion of our humanity in exchange for likes and shares. I find that I have grown jaded, much to my dismay.
Endeavoring to be consequential is met with a proverbial rolling of the eyes.
Where admitting that you are a flawed, malleable, yet functioning piece of protoplasm is interpreted as a sign of weakness.
I wonder…
Why that is?
Are we scared at the prospect of being more than what we are?
Is there comfort in settling versus undergoing the pains that accompanies growth?
Is the very act of ruminating, railing against what we think we know, treasonous?
It is a fools errand to demand for one to “get over it” while reclining in the luxury of never having had to go through it.
There is an uncertain ease in always being on the right side of an issue. That being said, it is only logical that one would summon all of the power at their disposal to maintain the comfort that this fallacy provides.

The query
I implored –
knees incumbent
to
the floor.
God sent
you
for
me to adore.
Nothing tendered
but,
aspirations –
those
profusive dedications
at the altar –
of you.
My vocation
of
adoration.

Harboring treasonous thoughts or not?
In a world where the foundation is skewed towards the slow erosion of our humanity in exchange for likes and shares. I find that I have grown jaded, much to my dismay.
Endeavoring to be consequential is met with a proverbial rolling of the eyes.
Where admitting that you are a flawed, malleable, yet functioning piece of protoplasm is interpreted as a sign of weakness.
I wonder…
Why that is?
Are we scared at the prospect of being more than what we are?
Is there comfort in settling versus undergoing the pains that accompanies growth?
Is the very act of ruminating, railing against what we think we know, treasonous?
Am I a traitor?
Is this pride that I feel or is it disaffection?

Just an epiphany of sorts…
It is a fools errand to demand for one to “get over it” while reclining in the luxury of never having had to go through it.
There is an uncertain ease in always being on the right side of an issue. That being said, it is only logical that one would summon all of the power at their disposal to maintain the comfort that this fallacy provides.
