Toil & Error

Stuck in deep thought most of time; I’m miles away.
Unaware of my own body, much less the date.

Couldn’t say what was had for dinner yesterday.
What do these trivialities mean anyway?

This is my true work, what matters above all else.
In its face, all of life’s importance simply melts.

I write every day because I have zero choice.
I would combust, if I had no vent for my voice.

Most times, the best we can do is just bear witness…
Bear it for the world at large & human fitness.

I see the world through a Painter’s eyes and process it with a Poet's Heart....it's quite a harsh place for the soul. It scratches and wears your true self down, at times, but the Beauty is Addictive. I feel for everyone I encounter. Everyone I encounter is a teacher if I'll let them be. I Empathize with everyone I talk to & I Think about Everything-LEVi
