Maggots in my sugar

unfinished

Life's splendor of idealistic dreams

Broken........into rapid winding maze's

Blinded by the labyrinth's and tunnel's

Always struggling to find harmonic balance

Do we look out?

Do we Look in?

What is the outcome?

A fleeting reality, that once was and could have been

Laughter on our faces, hope and love in our eye's

It was evil that just passed us

By just a moment

It was maggots in my sugar that reminded me

Dont go that way!

Abstract frivolity escapades as prospects

Distinguishing between the pessimist and opportunist

Which will I be today?

Social injustice or handcuffed loyality to the dangling carrots

Of misinformed lies and tradgedy

Author's Note

this poem is not about love its about social injustice and the choices we make in our lives, it is not about loyality when you are inlove with someone.

Hey! Great to see you writing again! This is a great piece here. Tis true, too. Not knowing who we're gonna meet; where we'll all end up, not knowing what the day holds in store, and what type of person we're gonna be each day all has us puzzling over one word: Life...and where will it take us today? This was a great piece hun, great job!

Wonderful piece. Look in or out, see or imagine, participate, deny. with just a subtle reminder that this life is brief, yet we waste it on meaningless decoration of what it and we are/ should be.
At least, that is what it spoke to me. Thank you for sharing. I really enjoyed reading it.

I like this and understood what it was about generally before I read your Author's Note. It is about our choices each day as we wake up to face another day....'which will I be today?' Very poignant actually. In the eighth line I would have put 'could have been' instead of 'could of been' but that's grammar and you may not have wanted it to be absolutely grammatically correct.
