The Lay of The Best Man - Part One

The ultimate test of the times:
United in togetherness
We stand tall with heads held high
Shoulders back
Chests out
Lined up straighter than arrows

It feels like I got drafted to a war.
A war I didn't even know started.
Maybe I was oblivious.
Maybe there's an excuse,
Then again maybe not.

I feel beyond tense. 
Nowhere is home...

Since our most recent U.S. Presidential non-selection,
for one thing a Trumpian could not become

Not chosen but for few their choice 
Life's weakening priority of mankind's being

A contracted seafarer...concerning no servile rank, 
kept e'er involved watch...away from menial daily tasks top deck,

A dawn swift gust...brushes the ship from a rocky pillar, 
duly rallies from rest...aids...

For everyone to see and live a life.

My nose is itchin', company's comin'.
Land sakes alive, as I live and breathe,

forbidding death to take hold,
his mate on his arm,
flailing in the cold,
rushing away from the darkness,

but he would abandon her,
if she continued slowing...

Men would open doors for the ladies
Strangers would wish you goodnight

Drivers would wave another car through
Though they were late for a meeting
Men would get up,...
