Normal Now

The past is gone.

The glory days are over.

No one is immune to change.

We all want comfort.

Things are not going to return to yesterday’s average.

The future is scarier than when I was a kid.

Now I know why time is unforgiving.

Dealing with the uncertainty is the new normal.

Poetry is a Lie

It serves no purpose.

People seek meaning in useless things.

There is no truth in a poem.

Everyone sees something different.

That is the point.

One that calls for art to be defunded

as they hang pictures on the walls

and listen to the music on the radio.

Life is observant

Things you might not notice

will seemingly randomly happen.

Mainly because the universe

is chaotic.

You can either fight it

or accept it.

One will be happier when life throws the curveballs

and you can dodge them.

If you are lucky

you can bat them back full swing.
