manifesto

people say and people speak
i maintain until i change
we culminate in conversation
relationships come and go
it all defines us, as well as me
i proclaim ubiquity
until it affects me

selfish and heartless
are terms of endearment
caring and thoughtfulness
somehow become slurs
as cranial as i claim to be
incongruent becomes
another word that best describes me

broken and battered
most often by myself
i enjoy each day's lapses
if not to recapture the reason
then to capitulate with humanity
understanding i'm but a stain
on the overall picture of longevity
