how do you write something good,
when the world as you are seeing it,
is not giving you the best that it has to offer,
or showing you the best that there is.
what is there to see,
when you feel that you are living in the shadows.
marginalized.
relegated to second place.
sitting in third rate cafes eating cartoon food,
twenty years to the future.
it all comes down to wishful thinking.
still,
there is always the hope,
the prayer,
the understanding,
that it all comes down to what it is that we need to believe,
to understand,
to hope for,
to live for,
to pray for,
to even die for if necessary.
it is all good,
and in time,
what we leave behind,
should be a well written life.
that should be what should be written.
that should be the good thing that we have written.
