Accepted Expectancy
by Jeffrey Parrenwhen you have nothing to live for
it is easy to fall into the trap of the rat race

that settling for less is
and you fight to become above
the intoxicating influences
of accepted expectancy... 09/18/2007 Author's Note: Just a little gathering of thoughts on life and when I became aware of my own current futility and the need to break out of the constant grind that only produces a person more in debt than when he started...
