A pale comparison,

words not said,

incomplete stories untold,

flooded with television images,

wire images granted life,

computer code written across the glass,

mathematical equations left lost in the sum of one,

I strive for a perfection,

I live midstream,

not swimming,

not much of anything,

oversaturated eyeliner,

pocket sized edition given away,

i saw myself in a reflection,

and I asked for an answer to my question,

my reply was lacking attention,

life though it never lasts…
