Mixed Signals

Dare not
Be afraid
But proceed
With utmost
Caution

As money
Won’t solve
Your problems
But servitude
Actually might

When kneeling
Before our God
Whose existence
Can never
Be proven

Like faith
That worthy gamble
For spending
A life
In fear

Where freedom
Is always just
If the privileged
Few
Should have it

When laziness
Buys you nothing
But the need
To work
Some more

And pleasure
Is always laced
With a pain
That just keeps
Going

Seizing
Each passing moment
From our quick
Yet painful
Death

To show
How love is
Blind
Between these
Open fingers

Peeking
Beyond appearance
Cause beauty
Is still
Skin deep

Watching
How every move
Without rules
But planned
Successes

Is forgetting
Those second chances
Like tomorrow
Will surely
Come.

– J. Pigno
