# Ode to the Road > [a dystopian poem] **Published by:** [SuctionX](https://paragraph.com/@suctionx.com/) **Published on:** 2025-12-03 **URL:** https://paragraph.com/@suctionx.com/ode-to-the-road ## Content Life has lost its music. I drink less, I smoke less, I smile less, I care more, I sleep more, but things are more disappointing. Even music disappoints and I feel that we disappoint the world. Human consequences have sucked the glass dry and I am party to this. A spoil sport. I want nothing to do with all the places I go and the people who I meet. I want nothing more than less of the things I cannot drop. There is a space called balance. It is nowhere to be found. My feet fumble to the roar of traffic and I'm married to the road. ## Publication Information - [SuctionX](https://paragraph.com/@suctionx.com/): Publication homepage - [All Posts](https://paragraph.com/@suctionx.com/): More posts from this publication - [RSS Feed](https://api.paragraph.com/blogs/rss/@suctionx.com): Subscribe to updates - [Twitter](https://twitter.com/https://x.com/SuctionX999?t=g8dhGjpGxJwJQHgeIhH8Kg&s=09): Follow on Twitter
