Afraid to sleep
j a connor May 2023
Tossed into another dimension
Via dreams I dare not mention
Unsure of life in this realm
Frightened by thoughts that overwhelm
Escape seems irrelevant and unclear
Where I am is where I belong
I fear

A message from the sponsors
j a connor Dec 2023
Our world is in crisis.

I represent Kalashnikov.
Although we are currently doing very well in the world, we need your help.

Global conditions continue to be challenging but not enough innocent people are dying.
This causes all sort of problems, overpopulation and environmental impact being just two of the issues now facing our planet.

Please donate as much as you can afford to :
[email protected]

Help us to restructure the world into a far more dangerous place.

Thank you.

Now
Begone all the nay sayers
I have risen to be me
No more will I be passed over
No truth I will not see
For life is mine
And I must live
As this is the only time I can give
To those who are sighing
What about tomorrow
Live like you're dying
Self pity
Is
Sorrow

j a connor Apr 2023
Sometimes
When I go to sleep
I think

What time do I have

Change is constant
Just look in the mirror
I will have little control over how things pan out

Sometimes
It can be detrimental
To think

Of what was
Of what will be

Now is all I have
  
Someday
The morning will not be there
I close my eyes and wait

Floating up too soon

deepening sadness endows this world with a mistaken belief that all is lost
what is seen as the end is also the beginning
the birth of a new era
civilisations pass through time
some into obscurity
others to reflect the success and failures of mans attempts to develop

now we must follow the flow and alter to adapt to what lies ahead
we must enjoy the moment
live fully
be alive

Developed the vision

On a busy road
Watching the trains go by
Into tunnels that lead
Everywhere
Except where
He wants to be
Too fast for the catch
The net not big enough
However
The past reminds him
Don't lead a forgetful future
All is as it seems
At least in this time

In search of vanity in the 22nd century
The automatons looked back

In the near past the creatures now kept as pets displayed all the traits required
"I want and will have" seemed a popular misconception until the changes happened

Now for pure entertainment
Styled and paraded

They will be a useful distraction in the bleakness of this barren world and a reminder that all intelligence must evolve to survive
