Life is anything but stable.

         One day you're at the top then you're struggling in a new different way. It's just up to our character and soul to make some type consistency in this dirt, so consistent that when any challenge that passes through us either expected , unexpected, side ways, Fridays, that it won't matter , we'll get through it.

                         The only body we have to live in is ourselves. 

                                       

                                      Your body is a building. You're the super, you make space for who ever you want in your life. If they pay their rent on a reasonable time, they get closer to you and you trust them. There will always be problems in your building. Either is door problems, sink problems, cable problems , they will always come. 

                                            

                                           Having a perfect building in our lives is impossible 

                                                                                                    Is up to us, 

                                                                                                         to handle the

                                                                                                               problems 

                                                                                                     or let 'em handle us

I really liked how you compared a building with a person's own body, I hadn't even heard of a comparison like that and I think it is really creative and accurate. By reading your work I have really started to imagine how my building looks like, and how the people inside it behave. I think maybe I need a remodeling.
I really enjoyed it, but I just wanted to say that I would really liked it if you would make an example of a description of a room and it's colors to the situation in a person's life. That would be so awesome!!! Thanks a lot c:

Excellent read and write. Keep writing, delve into the darkness of self and see you are the light, perspective may change.

Our body they say is our temple. So it is how we build it, care for it and fill it that does indeed matter. Which brings me to your metaphor of Super and tenant. Yes everyone is imperfect, you must except them for who they are. But occasionally I have had to evict them so I can grow.

Good stuff, I enjoyed how you sort of hit on a lot of things, I objectify life

[quinfinn]

I have never heard of comparing our bodies to buildings, but it's a brilliant comparison.

"If they pay their rent on a reasonable time, they get closer to you and you trust them."

Very nicely penned!

The eyes are the window's to our soul and our bodies are buildings we live in, we can choose to look after the building and keep the windows clean so we can see the sun rise. I always enjoy your writing Jason (maybe have a go at a short story) nice work again.

I am not a great lover of prose style poetry..for me it is the same thing..you might as well write a paragraph with a conclusion...Your ideas remain varied and interesting though..I still think that you have done much better than this

Having a perfect building in our lives is impossible -- great line. It has taken me a long time to realize this, but it is so very true. We cannot expect that life is going to be laid out before us as a perfect bounty; we must go forth and "seize the day".

Very nicely written. I like the imagery you have used, and the flow is quite nice in its unorthodox format.
