Unnoticed,
ignored,
I’d go as far as
neglected.
So this is
the triggered start.
There have been first times,
but none like this.
This time,
unlike all the rest,
the 4AM call
has gone unnoticed.
Picking up
was never a problem
before all this
time and attention change.
There’s limited time,
limited attention
I get all that
that’s not what I’m saying.
There have been
26 years of yesterdays,
filling gaps
of moments and memories.
Forget all that,
let’s just throw yesterday away
down the proverbial virtual drain.
Today the trigger starts
it’s something
I can’t quite fully explain
this fucking corner
where I’ve been placed.
The reason for all this
is terminal perhaps
an unfair
punch to the gut.
Push Us all away
shove if you must
silence
such a wonderful friend
so much better than
the one that I’ve got.
