Poem of the Day:  Trying To Escape

I’m trying to escape the stress of work before I go berserk in that place that I hate.  I swear they are driving me insane.  I need to get away, ride off into the sunset or take a trip that’s far and requires me to use a plane.  I want to escape society and all the atrocities that is displayed on the news and social media daily.  Everywhere you look there’s always pain and suffering but never any answer to the question of “Why is this happening?”.  I’m beyond frustrated.  My blood pressure is already elevated from a mystery heart condition that doctors have not yet evaluated correctly because no one is paying attention to a god damn thing that’s right in front of them.  You pray for a sign but ignore what is presented to your eyes and mind.  In this life we use substances as a tool to get us high just so we can try to get by with the daily routines in which we call our “life”.  Surprise, surprise this can’t be life.  So I’m looking for a place to run away to and hide.  Maybe I can escape somewhere within in the depths of my own mind.  Find peace and tranquility which exists in my own subconscious.  Search my soul for a place I call home.  I know the only drug that we need to use to escape is LOVE.  It will always help you get through.
