On Being


half-baked men
loyal to their self-preserving obsessions
make me want to kill myself
50 years of solidity

only those defeated
hear their souls crying clearly

the rest keep humming to an old rhythm
moving further away from the beat
the silver bearded dreamers who dare not dream
never quite fool themselves

I once knew Clyde
when he was an honest man
