simplicity
originally written 10.29.02

simplicity inhibits me
'cause i can't see
past the impasse
how long will this last?
like a kid who can't sit still,
frustration shakes my will...
i spill
my heart...a metaphor overrated,
mine has evaporated.
where to go...there's a wall in the way...
it's there everyday.
i need a big-ass mallet,
when it hits the wall, shall it
fall? or stay standing?
damaging my understanding
of fate, and destiny
while this wall batters the rest of me...
outside and inside...
i just want to see who's on the other side.
