A Tranquil Calamity
An Interior Look Inside a Chaotic Mind
The twilight sky
looked incredulously bizarre
the red hue of sunset
doused in bleakness above
I saw the rain and smelt it too
despite the shroud of grey
lingering overhead,
looming ominously
I saw also the stars,
felt the fullness of the moon too
shining brightly
only for those who
could see beyond sight
& who hear without ears
& feel without touch
the winds raged on
as if God himself sneezed,
but none below said, “bless you”
thus the rains showered heavily
thunderous lighting cracked from afar
and hail fell like sinful punishment
from an angered deity on high
it’s just really odd...there it was...
that magnificent storm
screaming at me
through a calm night sky
it must be in my mind
where my thoughts are war-torn,
bad off and far gone...
a raincoat would have been nice

Time to change your life.
Is it even possible for you to change your life? A lot of people, more than there should be, are unhappy with their lives. But what are they doing about it? Usually nothing. People talk about how shitty their lives are and want change, but are they not taking the actions to change?
