am i turning into bone?
or am i turning into precious stone?
you say that i’m calcified.
i don’t know if i even tried.
if gold is worth your struggle,
you may be worth your weight in gold.
but should that weight bring you to buckle,
you can have a career in coal.
so rich in soot and rubble,
panning for the value of soul.
but if you retire that shovel,
coal might still await you at home.
if diamonds leave you restless,
levy that the pressure is held
like gravity against your mattress,
in lieu of the insurance you sell.
gifted in gems and spasms,
deadpan in the deepest of sleep.
but if you climb out of that chasm,
return back to the bank.
we have reached this juncture in our lives
where we ask ourselves the questions that underline
who we are, and where we will be in 5 years time.
will we be calcified?
ill with regret over lack of effort and failed attempts at friendships and family ties that have been severed, through impulsive pursuit of a goal obscured by the pennant glory of an impossible and distant legacy.
