Opting Out | Unsubscribe | Spoken Word

Some days I feel I want to unsubscribe from life,
Like opting out of the bs that happening in mine,
Feeling like I am walking in minefields,
Knowing another episode is about to explode,
Can’t crack the logic to the frantic,
I haven’t developed the code,
Can’t be watching people on social,
Faking life seem so hopeful,
It’s worth noting,
Or I could just be hoping,
I need to change to something more potent,
Something with a kick,
I mean,
I see the goal,
But not knowing how winning feels,
Evergreen, yea ever green,
Haven’t fully ripen,
Straight to rotten it just seems,
Meanings to things are not what they pan out to be,
Believing the words of others,
Have you ever watched a politician speak?
Leak sources,
Tie up our forces,
Buying courses,
Email inbox cluttered with advertising,
Every arising just leads,
To another minefield,
It can’t just be me,
So I escaping on a boat,
To stay afloat,
With just hopes,
Of how being at peace feels,
Opting to unsubscribe,
Shouldn’t feel so mean,
Feels let a bit of breakup,
We finally wake up,
Playing for another team.

  1. I know that feeling of wanting to unsubscribe, life really pushes us to the edge sometimes.

    1. So true, there are moments it’s too much. For why Mental Health issues are they way they are today. Hence the this post for the month. 🙂

  2. Life is a play and we are the actors, I’ve deleted my FB page, too much fuckery. I’m not looking forward to the upcoming elections either. Ignorance is bliss. I hate it here but I pray every night like my grandma’ taught me for God not to take me cause I ain’t ready to go lol

    1. You telling it raw and the way it is. The craft is being lost a bit, these social media pages have snatch our soul. I got deleted by Facebook before, and locked out my account, fought to get it back to be like, i aint miss shit, more that mad updates on pictures and life moments, sure I am happy for people in general, but seeing that every single day, with no CONTENT of words, thoughts, ideas, discpline that press a button, they don’t need my attention and comments. I will give it more to a youtube creator and writer/blogger who has a craft they put work into.

    2. I am totally with your on the election thoughts, it’s gonna be real reckless, the last two were. So imagine the next level they are going to take it. Oh yea, I ain’t ready to go yet either, I must see Japan, UK, and meet more dope people with great conversation to have more delightful memories.
