looking for it

 

we are all looking for
something

trying to find
something

for some it's love

some have tried many
times to find love
and have
failed

failed so badly that love
now smells of rotting
fish on an
empty
pier

others look for solitude

solitude from chaos

solitude from the
world

solitude from others

solitude from others
looking incipiently
for love

solitude:
like a cold splash of
water on your face
to wake you from
some terrible dream
on a fevered
night

we are all looking for
something

trying to find
something

something to make
our lives right,
give it all
meaning

better to take a
pill

go mole hunting

play Russian roulette
with all the
chambers
filled
