the death march

one foot in front of the other day after grueling day my time marches behind me with a gun to my back looming larger and larger as we all walk towards the abyss billions and billions of us marching together each desperately clutching at whatever nourishment presents itself some shove others out of the way, or ride on their backs some hold out helping hands and lend their shoulders for support and some just shrug their shoulders, and lie down while falling is inevitable how we march in the face of its inevitability expresses our truest selves when we have time to look up, the views can be incredible when we connect, our love makes everything worthwhile but my dreams feel like someone small standing before a massive wall i wake up each morning to the sound of the beating drums of the times the thudding of my heart in my ears as i try to watch my footing and escape my worries about the future live my gratitude, because acknowledging it is not enough never enough ju
