run rabbit run

no longer was
she content
walking among the
dead
however there were
none of the living
kind to be found

she didn't understand
their boring jobs
and boring spouses
and boring kids
and boring houses
and boring sex
and boring traditions

she didn't inherit
anything from the
past
she didn't owe
anything to anyone
and she didn't care
to pretend
that she cared

one might call
it hedonistic
but there's no
wrong in
walking away from
anything or anyone
in favor of
walking towards
something better

and this girl
ran as fast as
she could
and found herself
a way to breathe
life into her
existence

Reviews

[Misery]

Good for the rabbit who ran and
better for the poet who penned these bare naked words.
Truth told beautifully.

[Heather Hassell]

i appreciate it! i'm glad you like my work, it's quite flattering.

The character in the poem describes a girl that is unable to find the meaning of routine in life and there is no one around her to explain it to her.
