Blue Collar Shirt

I just put on that blue collar shirt,

Again.

 the one I had left behind…

The one had I thought

 I would never use it again.

That armor we wear,

Outside

like working class gladiators.

.

Life has a way of surprising us.

with exactly what we expected…

let it happen.

Just like all the other tiny little things,

fighting to survive.

Required parts of enormous and tremendous things, 

that are part of

infinitely bigger things.

We cannot perceive.

.

Learn to dance to the rhythm

of the beats of your heart,

in that hell

that warms our blood.

Find your way back 

to the starting point,

Just to say you’ve come home.
