Existence

Existence
"The state of living, or having objective reality"
Living is Existence
What is Existence
Not the ice sculpture
Not the photo shopped, picture perfect version plastered on the smuck white dictionary pages
What is it to you
Existence is I, composing these words so exact and sharp as the silence sliding off the snake's tongue
As it is to you, as your eyes dissect each letter and stich into every word before you
You were put here on this sphere of colors to scrutinize my deranged thoughts disguised as literature
For....pleasure....purpose....pity  for I
Is your Existence greater than mine
Society has built elevated mountains and has wired you to never be worthy of climbing
Your Existence is not to stand at the bottom of a lofty tower, decaying leisurely while waiting for Rapunzel to let down her hair
This is not a fairytale
This is Existence
Same day
Same month
Same year on repeat
48 hours to "live"
Why are we here
No choice, destined to search for....
What
When you find yours, may you help me find mine
Until, I will exsit with these lines and maybe in-between them find
Existence
