Not For Purchase

1st ENTRY

"Splat" 8"x10" Acrylic on canvas by; Keith McHugh

Awakened by a battalion,

Alienating thoughts berating me,

Separating my chance to see,

What could truly be,

Hindering my productivity,

A byproduct of society,

Quietly disrupts the day,

I try pushing them away,

Battling my way up,

Putting coffee in my cup,

The upper hand now mine,

As I find my way around,

Drowning out the noise,

I'm poised for progress,

Pressing on ahead,

My head a playground,

As thoughts bounce around,

Bound to my creation,

Some turning into sound,

As vibrations float around,

Grounding my energy,

Entertaining an entity,

The sensitivity grows,

I fall into the shadows,

No one knows how low,

I call out to my foes,

I know my purpose,

It's soon to surface,

We don't deserve this,

The Land was not for purchase,

It's time to repurpose your role,

As the whole regains control.
