Evolution

Or is it de-evolution? I informed a friend today of a notice I received in the mail. His response, 'You're such an idiot'. Sad part is, he's right. One would think I'd learned my lesson by now, and yet here we are...

"Evolution"

Here it comes
The cresting of the waves
Troublesome breaks
Upon the shores of my existence.

Waves
Created in places far away
Small at their conception
Now thunderous
Ravenous
Seeking to devour
My ramshackle sanity
As I somehow knew they would;

The worst of it all
As black foretold the white
'Death, but not for you'
I
Forever go on
Collecting along
The debris that will clutter
As it has before
Art from destruction
Symphony
From shrill winds and sea breeze
Misting my path
Erasing the memory of me;

I'd ask
What have I done to deserve this
But it is to my nature
As surf to the shore
Remaking
Remade
In the constant destruction
That is evolution...
