pail melancholy monkeys
passing through time
wander aimlessly through nothing
analyzing their minds
they find a reason for being
and think of nothing else
if they find no motivation
some may kill themselves
some may think
if they have no purpose
it’s too scary to live
if life is worthless
the point to this story
is to warn all who may hear
live for the moment
don’t live in fear
Early poetry from James. From the poetry collection Pariah Bound: The Lonesome Poetry.
