Vignette, breathing

Maybe,

the confusion

is breathing

Common rains

bullshit reins

frustrating the veins

of gold

of childhood

of being

human

of being alive

How can I touch you

be with you, be you

when exchange rates flutter

pushing hearts to purchase

souls by tens of thousands at a time

or one by one in car seats

Help

pools of high mountain water

surrounding

breaking foams of beauty and sound

nature has no room for us

as we are inclined

breathe.

Thanks! I feel sorta refreshed, which is rather odd considering the subject... but so beautiful and appreciated!

Psychopathy is not a political position, whether labeled 'conservatism', 'centrism' or 'left'.

A tin labeled 'coffee' may be a can of worms or pathology identified by a lack of empathy/willingness to harm others to achieve personal desires.
