    Contemplation

     

    I’m looking at the life I haven’t been living

    It’ been ions since any one else is to blame

    But I cant take from the world what its not giving.

    At this point I have to come to realize that

    all my excuses start sounding the same

    Its not God, the devil, Demon or saint

    Not mankind or industry that takes anything away

    Life is a canvas and it’s time to paint.

    Because the first day of the rest of my life was yesterday.

    TW11-14

    Interesting and thought provoking; well titled. I get from this a lack of satisfaction with the life you're leading and feel unfulfilled. But, realize this and choose to begin painting your canvas of life. Or, maybe I'm way off. lol! regardless I liked it. Well done.

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
