Quite Dominance - The Becoming

The following words emitted from my being

Memories like this make me gravitate 

towards the notion

"It is written"

The LaToya from my past

new who I am at this very moment

needed to read this. 

We work to become, not to acquire. 

The majority of what one believes

is the power of
 suggestion.

It is said: Sagittarians are known for their adventurous, 

life of the party, abhor being tied down 

disposition.

As an introvert,

I have never personified

the aforementioned.

‘The Perks Of Being A Wallflower’

has always

coincide with my being.

Is that a paradoxical anomaly?

cherished Idiosyncrasy?

conundrum of an over thinker?

Always contemplating

in betwixt

an aspect of myself reawakened!

As I travel daily

borough to borough

immersed in scenery.

Infatuated

with the ambiance

of everyone rushing

within arms reach.

My gaze meets lovers

oblivious

to their surroundings

Performers and artists

of various

genres.

Advertisements are effervescent. 

Children’s laughter

The mischievousness

of teenage adolescence

Adults absorbed

in verbalized

condescension.

Different ethnicities

musical symphony

of languages.

Amid the latest

fashions

phones, books

and tablets.

Panhandlers

Tourist

Aroma of fast food and cuisines

Self proclaimed ministers

Prophets

Theologians

Ponzi scheme’s.

If I didn’t mention it

what’s your

faith?

Selling dreams

at whatever price

an individual is willing to pay.

As the affluent

continue to scheme

on their next venture

The Homeless

shelter passerby’s

in acquired wisdom….

I am humbled

Appreciating the opportunity to attune

what lay dormant

but was always with in

Understanding:

Going to work everyday

isn't about 'making a living'

it is the joy of watching other’s live.

In These Trying Times
When A Frown Is The Fashion

I'm Beaming

Sun
