emptied of hollow descriptions,
mundane tasks never end
the tangible world wins.

attentions spans lost.
is it Time that has wandered away,
or just Us?

entertained by the beautiful,
two-dimensional.
I have yet to meet a flawless face.

we are settled into place
nestled next to what we know
uninterested in what we don't.

commonplace to curse
and pace like lions
in a squared cage with three walls.

oh, the places we could go
if we weren't so focused on constriction, the unfairness of it all.
