Darwinian Cross-Hairs

melifluous
senile truant
in-oppurtunist
meandering
cluelessly

a stiff-necked person
integration prone
overthrown
at conception
by sense so common
it remains
blind to ambition

pre-seeded
thusly impaired
proceeded upon
Our
Journey up Stares
inwardly unaware
those free-of-care
begin to stumble
in mid-life`s
Darwinian cross-hairs

self-propelled
accountability bred
never investing
in competitions
where financial
muscle`s grown,
or blood is shed...

after years observing
amassed security
resulting from lives
stone-ground noses
capitalistically led.....

perspective
rears
it`s ugly head

each day`s ratio
of Joy and Dread
wildly fluctuate
in calming Wisdom`s stead

and though
innately aware
you`ll never want
for food, home, or dress
you realize
by never embracing
The System,
you`re position
within
for remaining
duration
is either
a pathetic mess,
or
mediocre
at best
