I Died Long Ago

The story remains largely unwritten
Truths are demonstrably far too painful
For the actors and to the observers
Improvising a life generally off book

so the stories became far too mundane
showcasing an existence far too ordinary
protecting those lovelies closest
by the exclusion of audiences

Do no harm
To self or other (is)
The first rule of Life Club
A survivalist manifesto of humanity

there will always be speculation about actualities
but if unspilled there is no evidence of milk
yet just because a vault is locked
does not necessarily mean wealth lies

To what lengths
For how long
What purposes are served
These are the open questions

A Mid-Summer Peek

http://tyhardaway.tumblr.com/
a mid-summer peek
   into unmanaged time and thought
it is strenuous enough work
   as a relative term
attempting to make your way home
   and no one finds their way back
sweet spot and equilibrium
   where the formulas optimize
zones of safe harbor
   or criminal hide-outs
with so much to ponder and juggle
   and avoid and dismiss
i just still want to ride the ponies
   art as selfish manipulation
but my shoes are stuck in the mud
   i am a phony sham coward
