*NOT* Springfield Road

Bloomington-Normal, Illinois

Nothing as obvious as a life of fence sitting.

Doing nothing but to sit within niceties of in-action.

Not even listening for a chance that there be a difference.

So stuffed up as life lets all just past you by.

What if it be that physicality is the only thing that defined us as being.

Our only chance was mistaken as single strings of normality.

No wonder no great step forward.

Only left to consume like grass eaters gathered together and subconsciously fearing slaughter.
