A Poetry Kind of Day
It has been a long time since I have been able to write poetry. It is an art form I don't always understand. I like to read it, but it is usually hit and miss whether I like it or not. So I've been going through stuff, so I wrote some poems recently. I'm sharing them with you.

Agonizing, Torment, Panic
All this because the Internet went out
Bored, Lonely, Sad
All this because the Internet went out
What to do, What to do?
Why are we stuck in an age
where Wi-Fi breathes us life
defines us, controls us?
The minute it goes
we freeze and
forget how to live.
---
too much
suffocating, surrounding,
desire owning, having
overwhelming, intoxicating
unable to toss it away
too many leftovers of a past
unwanted memories of a life
struggling
let it go, go, go
get away
usefulness
dried up, gone
not needed
trash it, give it, clean it up
not only physical,
in the mind
as well
memories with people
not things
go ahead
take pictures
take videos
try
device down
once in a while
enjoy moment
record everything
forget to
really live it
pictures and video
are things too

music, loud, love
headphones, my friend,
savior, comfort me
thank you
scary, too crazy
ouch, pain
people
hide, be quiet,
shh
better to, like to,
want to, hate to
ignore the world
confusing, conflicting
wants, desires
