thoughts about the world today

i don't usually post much of my own poetry. mostly i post everyone elses lyrics, but, i was driving to my miserable "everything right where it belongs" retail job yesterday afternoon and this just fell out of my head. so fluidly and easily, i pulled over to write down. i can't usually get my ideas on paper this quickly. but this came in one solid thought without a pause, here it was. so i felt i should post it.

its not done, this will be one i keep visiting and adding too, but i'm please with it foundation. so with out furthur a-do.....

my guitar has rusty strings
and my dreams are wearing thin
i'm saying so much
while no one listens

i'm sinking
suffocating under
your ignorance

tell me, if you can
if "ignorance is bliss"
why are you so unhappy?
why are you still complaining?

all i see are cookie-cutter people
fitting together better than puzzle pieces
the places where you overlap
you become invisible
i've no compassion for you anymore
