Wrong Turn
August 5, 2013
It is beautiful.
Woven together with good intentions
sprouting greens, a peaceful blue
and nothing but.
Everlasting presence
despite the damage,
Persisting to make itself known;
appreciated.
It is ugly
Covered with the muck of those it saves
The undying pressure to prove one better
better than the blue,
better than the green,
better than the other
Better yet,
lost.
Lost in the process
Loss of the true life
Life under the shattered egos
Life in ourselves
Loss of true life
under shattered egos
within ourselves
