most of us go quietly
with birth we are 'opened' - death we are 'shut' we cooperate - generally live 'flowingly' - but some exist to be fondly recalled - we suppose others are purposely popular - in nice clothes unless one invents 'the better mousetrap' receives The Nobel or whatever nice crap is amazingly famous - or infamous-ly known our one parting shot will be on our gravestone beneath it - we'll molder away for a while after keeping this mindful thru-out our last mile: the cosmic and random had brought us thus far we were never the focus - truly - never the star llp - dA - mar2022

Knowing a thing or two
I know you as someone else
taking blame and causing shame
I know you as someone else
And that someone's disturbing
I held on for as long as I could
I thought that I could change you
I gave all the me that was left
And you trampled it thoroughly
I gave up
And went out into the world
You, strangely, came looking for me
I hid in your shadow and listened
You were crying in pain
You were crying in vain
I know you as someone else
This isn't the someone that I knew
But I know better than to show myself
I left your shadow quietly
and fled
