I come short of who I want to be,
and always will.

Striving for more
the pedal is to the floor
where ironically
i would rather be
fred flinstone rolling past
a dinosaur.

I will always fall short.

Never leaping off a building
I will be more like spiderman
to a ceiling,

knowing there is more
for the reachings
beyond what i am seeing.

I am what i am
when and where
i have been

Jason
Jason
Jason

no matter how many
times i say my name
I will always be,

the same man

getting under my skin
where you cant see me
bleeding within.

the guy who is
good at being hurt
even after all
the healings.

if i could
i would prefer
to drink
over eating

a grown man
teething.

a young man
receding.

a fool man
feeding Off rubbish

developing an ulcer
in my stomach

the no pain
no gain
makes it strange
to explain
how i live it
and love it

this is where
i fukted over a smart chick
just to screw over a dumb betch

me,
yeah me

i am that
dumb betch

the one who seems happier being poor

the one who still can not ignore
that sour taste
of what it was i though i had

when i was living in a lonely rich
state
i had to segregate to seperate
to figure out why i loved to hate

6 chairs, One table, One plate

gawd, this life is a betch

the cut
the blood
the pain
the stitch

a beautiful face
hiding behind one
zit

this is where
I,
you'sta give a ****

a sour faced lemon head
breaking down

con-sti-pa-ted


hmm, how else can i?
explain it?

we are cruel;

the older we get

the younger we die

why?

because in the bible it shows
some men lived to be 900

when
now a days it seems
we are lucky to reach 60

we say that 40
is the new 20

how does this help
the midlife crisis
phase?

i think we are doing this
all wrong

dreading the past
at last
is a thing of the future

I assure you

now it is
the same as it was,
and in time
it will be the same
as it is
in time

when remembered

thinking back

there is no reason
to front

we cant catch everything
we hunt

Very well put Jason, you hit the cord just right. I will be out with the boys tonight thinking of your words and being who I am.
