Some People Get Close and Thats Good Enough

"SOME PEOPLE GET CLOSE AND THAT'S GOOD ENOUGH" what's love going to be in the year 802701? will it exist or will hatred be love and someone's admiration murder? another love is gone and the hatred for it festers both of our lives ran the fields and found life inside each other. as I drink this Pacific and smoke this cigarette, the smearing of love left its mark and impressed it's reality like a branding on cattle. now the skies remain blue and the wind still blows my son still smiles at me telling me not to worry because everything will be okay. she made me feel good and gave me a glimpse of something that was forever blurred in the distance. choices were limited because she put limits on herself. at this point on my timeline, all I can do is accept what is and hold onto the love she dangled in front of me. no matter what love is like in 802701 I'll be dead, long gone and buried. God will decide what love is to become... but at the very least, I knew what love could have been during the lifetime I wrote poetry. By: Chicano Eddie 4-6-2017
