Chasing

Chasing a hand on the shoulder... Chasing a statement of affirmation.. chasing a vote of confidence. I Often see my peers find themselves to a point of failure of some degree whether minute or extensive.

The inevitable break down often follows in some fashion.. Through speech.. through the language of the body... Reflecting the story in the droplets of tears that fall down upon their faces...

Accept failure from the start, we are lost the moment we are born into this wicked world... we are strangers in a world full of nobody's .. Special is the new scam... Success is the Pinnacle & Fame is the alleged closure ... This narrative alone should speak volume to the absurdity that surrounds.. However you to have a dark secret, a lust.. A desire.. An addiction .. A fetish. The truth is we all do, those that say they don't, think they have something to valuable to lose.. Only to eventually find out that the only person they loose in the end is themselves...The mirror looks at them.

    Very well written! That’s the absurdity of life, sadly. Very potent story!
