Ordinary

by Jeffrey Parren

An ordinary man
walks an ordinary street
finding remarkable moments
left and right with each step
finding within a burning
to live those snippets
if but only for a second.

Complex days complicate
simplistic endeavors
while instantly overwhelms,
disabling the cycle break
to which ordinary people
fall entranced with dizziness
failing improvements readily.

An ordinary man
gains a tired soul
complicated by circularity.
