Bushy Pathway Sunday

this box in a bushy pathway 
represents the direction of my
life and the end of my world as
i watch the grass grow and the
trees sway only to find myself 
even more lost that i ever was 
originally

in every daydream i am in a time
machine rubbing a magic lamp 
anticipating the surefire wishes
that i know in my heart will, without
doubt, come true

that stump with the bird manure 
collection aids in my relaxation as
i write poems in my mind that will
not see the light of day neither on
computer nor on paper

intentionally ignoring ideal ideas
idiotically, i become blind to the
potential of the art's buried treasures
and hidden discoveries

i know somebody will unknowingly beat me 
to the punch today and spike it with the
exclamation of his or her celebration

i guess i am a lazy loser full of awfully absurd
glorification
i will never show my face again due to the great
damage of my self demoralization
