like shedding skin / by Cory Basil

like shedding skin the human experience, as i have known it to be, is a collection of establishing and moving on. we find something we long for it we obtain it we hold on to it, and eventually we are forced to let it go. nothing stays the same, even we change. our body changes our skin deteriorates, under the ever changing sun, and our organs fail us leaving shells to rot in the dust or to be burned into ash. evolution revolution confusion reset button, this is how we thrive how we survive. if everything we know turns into something new i figure there must be a preceding chapter, a next thing to follow this thing, something new to establish to move to lose.
