Hostages
Such an intense waiting
for such a profound disappointment
Destiny someday arrives
and present collides with the future
So deceptive a notion
so misleading and false
So full of contradictions
so tedious and flat
They’re stuck in their daily hustle
and will try to drag you too
cutting corners and dreams
until life is due
Insomniac zombies
that ignore they’ve been tamed
their own hostages
they believe much they’ve gained.
Ulysses A.
