Refined Purpose Within The Present

Ready to mend the broken pieces

Of a shattered image

During the final curtain call

I pause

To reflect upon

A life I once considered

Monumental

The focus now

Is to materialize

What perpetuates my present given desires

Now opens up the flood gates

Of my subconscious

So I can exercise my demons

From within

I chose to revise my plan

I initiated in the beginning

To expand my horizons

But now it’s time for a shift in translation

I pay attention to current events

But remain detached

From what’s going on in a world

Of hypocritical redundancy

While I handle my business affairs fluently

To stay on afloat

Vastly within society’s social moving currents sevenfold

It may just be the way I interpret things, but when I read a lot of your stuff, I'm reminded of a writer's psyche, at least in some parts of most pieces...this is another one of those pieces...another great write regardless :)

It's sad that so many feel the need to detach themselves rather than step up and help create positive change. One of my favorite life sayings is, "Vision without action is just a daydream." People have to take ownership of their actions, their pacifistic behaviors, and their lives. No one is ever isolated from the world, no matter what they tell themselves or how much they try to remain detached. We must make life count for something and be proactive. Another interesting write.

Beautifully written. The words usage is done really nicely.

On the downside of it, the world is like a crappy movie: you can watch and react but you can never do anything to change it. Unless you get out of the house and look for the director and give him a nice straight punch on the nose. There you have made something different. But I doubt that could even change the movie itself. Great level of awareness. Great write.
