overrated reasons
for carrying on as constructs overdue for demolition
by the dozen, they come
expiry dates past
for roles we play, yet repeat like ghosts
poisoned as consequence of non-surrender to change
wasting away in comfort zones
suffocation on indulgence of the unknown
security, the drug of overdose
yet another dogma promising salvation
turned noose around neck
too enamored with idealism to recognize
time tick, tick, ticking
yet living like there's no limits
such ignorant common takes
underrated wisdom overlooked
for tomorrow's mistakes
