Eye contact
Undeserved...

INTELLECTUAL DESPERADO

Dear desperado,
Knowledge awaits you tomorrow,
If you painstakingly throw 
And expedite yourself like an arrow.
Though your foresight looks narrow,

Don't leave your mind incommunicado 
Or famished cos at seashore is where ships row.
Ignorance makes devious innuendo,
rising in...

his defeatist self-talk was paternal,
and torturous, 
reinforcing the force fed message,
"There is no happiness,
only gradients of misery,"
leaving him indifferent to the present,
careless of the future.

Reared in the shadows of perfection,
parental...

Ready to step out bold,

An inner source of both shuttling

We come
Those of us who make it through
That tenuous canal
Fraught with more peril
Than ever before
Compliments of those
Who deem us
Mere jetsam
To be jettisoned

Combined with normal exigencies
Create a journey
Which is both
Physically
And...
