Orion

But more often than not, who I am falls short of what I’ve missed out on

Parallel selves slip by with their heads tucked away and down
Scornful of the man they could have been

Loosely fitting and scarcely adhered , a shell of a fraction

Dodging bullets

Unaware of how often they cross my mind

Diligently clinging to shadows

Scurrying like insects between pillars of light

Gazed upon with the awe and wonder of a dreamer child

Evaporating with each lost grain of sand

One by one, falling by the wayside

Commenting on how The Great Hunter looks more like an hourglass

Rendered miniscule under his guise and grandeur

Reassured by the emptiness that is his stomach
