Mediocrity

Bound by the right and wrong

unaware, unfounded

and tired of the worst, when the best is no better. 

Their souls slide softly between plates of glass

speciments of the human race, to be

scrutinized and sized up, 

weighed and counted and divided. 

Their love is chaos

an undeveloped sense of belonging

of being

knowing not loneliness from company

relief from absense. 

They do not dare raise their eyes

and look behind, but not ahead

or else face the risk

that they are met by another

who may betray to them, their own distaste
