Symbolic Dayz

we suffer the symbols
and darts of self offence
and tout them around
to prove the right or wrong
of some weak or strong
circumstance position...
signs and symbols
just intellectual thimbles
for pushing a point home
to sew and to weave
ideas together
every night
into a bedspread
of token dreams...
i put all that aside
and go to sleep
