Factual Existence

Closing my Eyes The rapidity of my mind Caresses the Earth The mountains The Plains From Sea To Shining Skyscraper Birds Flying so Free Never to worry of the Urban Predators of life Only survival Befits the existence of the lonely soul Who extracts himself From a society Abused by its inability to exercise Restraint and protect itself From itself A suicide Waiting to happen Unleashing a Fury Only to be controlled by a nervous hand Lost in a Wilderness With no beginning And no end To its beginning Blindly dazed Metaphoric In a universe Of a closed eyelid Struggling to open Yet blinded by The light Of Factual Existence
