spirit

hanging man by thread.
the rafters creak and whisper.
stories left untold.

bobbing head upon
a sea of curious mirth.
generation gap.

to become bigger
than your station will allow.
futile or likely?

sun and surf in time.
spending time watching beach sand.
not clocks ticking by.

happy jingling coins.
music in threadbare pockets.
money for my thoughts?

to win an award.
does it mean you’ve succeeded.
or stumbled on path?
