Enjoy this day

screaming soul

deafening mind

fatiguing body

stealing time

.

cries bellow silent

swim or drown

louder wailing

lonelier sound

.

thump clenched fist

stomp booted feet

but time has come

to grit one's teeth

.

shell shocked soul

expect no saviour

save yourself

own your behaviour

.

fear is no home

anger no use here

demons will feed upon

and thus await tears

.

perishable memories

rot without trace

with passing years

nobody cares

.

feeble embarrassment

be silent

stop thrashing

stop the complaining

.

in blind quest

become violent

miss all the lessons

and forfeit your training

.

learn to stand

prepare to walk

move both feet

and cut loose talk

.

relax and breath

save some strength

you're not the first

to hit this fork

.

mere droplet

in this water cycle

enjoy this day

on the ground

.

be still, be quiet

be life's disciple

all things come

yet quicker, go around
