New Poem: Fixed

 

FIXED

Not quite spayed, but kind of close

Cut off from things I long for most

Love and passions far away,

Though I’m where they’re not,

I have to stay.

It’s better to be sensible and pick up coins

Then chase even paradise,or physical joy

And yet the money doesn’t gleam,

Not enough to replace my dreams.

Harder to move forward

Without someday.

A future that is new and fresh

Sparkling its way to my success.

(It might even be worth being stressed.)

For now, I sit and watch TV

Full of images  I can see rather than be

Pending a kind of immortality

Or something happening magically.

(Is there something left for me?)
