Pattern Recognition

Spitting nails ‘cause I’ve found my groove.
Zip’s what I no longer need prove.

Annoyed by doubled down commit.
Affronted by incessant wit.

Jealous, leering, eyes scraping by.
Bitterly cold in mid-July.

Averting darting unheld gaze.
Afraid to learn what silence says.

Digging in heels like a teen girl.
Defy the reason of the world.

Childish lapses in judgement grave.
Entitled to what others save.

These are not a realist’s traits.
These traits are greed…& keeping gates.

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
