unoffensive.
just another box.
but it's what's inside that counts--
"relationships" forged from false, forced hopefulness.
scraps of beauty I tape to my walls
to fool myself
instead of seeking the real thing.
a self-renewing pile of work
that has nothing to do with me,
yet will somehow determine my entire future.
Just another box.
I'll get out of this one--
I might even glimpse Life for a moment--
but I'll be poured right back into another one.
carpets and walls
mismatched beiges and grays and browns.
There has to be more

Sorry this one is dark and I'm rusty. Hopefully I'll put out something more positive (or at least pretty) soon.
