The Odds

thinking hoping, screaming flailing
dreaming  of  sleeping , of  dying
knowing  the  truth seeping  through
knowing, but there is nothing I can do
fighting  myself , and fighting  fate
what is it the whole world can hate
try to decide, the decisions i need
know  the rules  but don't  take heed
get by in this time, get by while i can
evolve passed my mere capablities as human
examine the lies, examine the secrets hidden
try to ignore the images desperately, unbidden
revolt the  extreme, hold  close  the  ordinary
what they  try to embed in  my  future, be wary
blaze my own trail, discover the new, the odds
don't be fooled by fools complicated facades
exuding helplessness in reality hunting
dreaming, sleeping, knowing, dying

    Looks like someone's indulging in the BIG picture.
    Careful my dear amo, get too far from the shores of the shallow and you just may find yourself drowning in the deep.

    I get the impression of your dream world or more like the world as your percieve it, slowly being invaded by the harsh realities as they bleed through from your subconscious. Pondering life and its meaning, finding faults in other's perceptions that they convey onto you, To rebel? To resist? and when and where to do so?

    In my interpretation of your poem here, you are looking at the vastness of the universe and realising just how small we really are in comparisson to such a big picture.
    Best you can do is just bite off what you can chew. No use in choking to death on the odds that seem insurmountable. Or maybe I'm just crazy!
