The ignominy of being ignored

Every human seeks an outlet for himself.Be it through his voice or his actions.
The ultimate aim of every individual is to distinguish himself.To reach the top of the evolutionary pyramid as the most eligible man and thus a winner in the dice game of survival....to promote himself and his progeny.

what of the ignored man? do his words his actions steep into the ground
to get dirtied by the dirty brown earth
unreciprocated unadored uncherished
forgotten like the old urns that lie dusty
used as slides by the rats and the roaches

unwanted second best
in the jungle of life
does the space he make tell him where to go
what to do

practicality kills
creativity is non existent
Juliet is the sun
the push to be productive
to do something useful with one s life is killing

For what is "being productive"

what is larger the rejection or the lukewarm attention

for i dont know how to attract attention
i have always walked alone
not by choice
for i would have loved it if somebody were mine
ownership
love

i dont know how to attract people
to irressistibly draw them to me
like moths to a light

i only know to walk alone in the heat with the
dust powdering my feet
dreary and tired
with worry lines and a frown
i do not know to be a girl
with admirers,graces and people eating out of
my hands
