Ever feel like
Your entire life is in review?
I’ve been reading
My Facebook comments
Which mostly consist of flash backs,
Re-hashes, memories, time hops etc.
Am I living in the past too much?
I try to live in the present
But there is too much of my life
In the rear view mirror.
Sometimes
I go nowhere.
I do nothing.
I spend no money.
This is not entirely true,
Only sometimes
It’s the plan.
Sometimes
I go places.
I do things.
I spend money.
I talk to people.
This is not entirely true,
Only most times
It’s the plan.
Sometimes
I am out of the loop,
I am in the know,
I am connected
And shut out.
Life is a paradox.
There is no plan,
And there’s nothing
I can do about it.
