Let’s Get Tough, People

No more fallible behavior allowed

Quit crying about it

Damn emotions

Always a distraction

From living life

Strapped to a concrete block

Of clear departure

Let it sink

Slowly into a mystique

That forgets reality for a period of time

Enough time

Sufficient hours

To separate human nature

Far enough from memory

So a person who lives in logic

Suddenly departs that mantra

Steadily drawn into a surreal world

In there

No one needs emotion

Just a brick wall

Enough to not damage the skin

But bounce the brain around

Enough to keep life’s merits a mystery
