Guidelines
following the dots to the
inevitable
connecting pieces fall
and shatter
breaking more than dreams
scratching
and clawing to get
nowhere
the treadmill continues at the
speed of light
2.5 children in a home with
3 baths
a dog
and indifference
I live the dream
and dream about
living
following the dots
till the picture is
complete
go through the motions
obey all the rules
to find happily ever after
I was on that page once
but I made a mistake
and my #2 pencil is missing
its eraser
