Tunnel Vision

You people need to snap the eff out of it!

Tunnel Vision       3/31/15

So damn focused you can’t even blink.

I’m tired of flailing around you.

Purging heaps of advice into your insolent mouth.

You seem to only hear his mumble through my howl.

Focusing only on his speck of light at the end of your tunnel vision.

Your eyes only dart from the places he goes.

Your ears only hear the things he says.

Your imprudent sense of self-worth only revolves around his actions.

We are all still here, too, ya know?

Yet you have placed us within the linings of darkness that surround your tunnel vision.

You have become blind to us and blinded by him.

I refuse to be sabotaged to live on the outer rim of your focus.

Wasting away somewhere in your distance.

If only you’d blink.

A blink taking you out of your tunnel for just one moment 

so you could see all the different specks of light that make up your life.

But you are so implacable

you've destined yourself to stare into his one speck of light for so long

that now all your eyes are merely muddled to see is

all of

NOTHING.
