Wild Horses

 where did we go so wrong
God is the whole not each one
individually trying to outsmart
 others and the actual situation
 
analytic strategies bite back
nothing wants to be atomized
inoperable in separated parts
requiring to be reassembled
 
that's some of it anyway think
before you identify with one
self eating its way through
others ganging up to fight
 
evil maniacs stimulate the urge
and feast on causing misery
as if life itself weren't hard
without imposing more pain
 
that's no excuse either I
can only blame philosophy
wrong thinking shakes the
reins we the wild horses

Getting On

 if I were myself
who would I be
 
clean white socks
positive outlook
 
after everything
still getting on
