What do you think this poem is about?

July 15th,1991 Poem

Half gone;
half thru...
Half baked;
Simmer blue

Thumbing through
a book of
blank
pages
Feeling frustration
consternation

Beginnings end
the same,
As a numbness
Creeps into my brain
Buries the pain
and the past
but at what price,
all tomorrows due

Sort of barnacled upon
The high tide postmark of life
