41. Every Day Changes You
every day changes you
sometimes a lot
sometimes barely
but life never stops

I heard the voices scream
“Nigger, best shut your mouth.”
When prejudice ran wild
While hatred ruled the south

let autumn be proof that
change is a beautiful thing
even though it can be
hard to see at first.
Good job. It's funny how change can be the thing we need the most but want the least.
There's an old man I pass
Almost every single day
We don't share many words cause
We really don't have anything nice to say
I’m always amazed how
You stand so very tall,
How you never give in,
You bend but do not fall.
I stand before the mirror
A stranger stares at me
I've been replaced by someone else
They're standing where I used to be.
If it wasn't for Waze taking me further than I needed
Or the turn in the road and back to find the entrance
If it wasn't for the endless pull in bays, grass verge mounts and slower than reasonable taxi's without decency to wave as I waited patiently for those to pass me by
I wouldn't have been there then. At that exact time.
