Miscreated motives
the world full of problems
twisted frenzy of emotions
which have no assonance
congregations coloring conformity
dressing up with the saints
Facing the intensity of confrontation
misrepresenting an appearance that's fake
Living in a rapacious world,
wanting to shrink away...
seeing reality as gullible.
Consequently amazed,
Typical of the current period,
hands reaching through the Golden Age,
selectively numb at fourty below Zero
and I'm holding on
At the bottom of the cess pool
choosing my own way,
finding a different reality to live through,
as everything stays the same.
Searching for a significant feeling
pondering the shame.
Stumbling in the right direction....
to find how I've gone the wrong way.
Living in every other temporary delusion,
wanting to give it away.
Jumping from confusion to conclusion.
Consequently amazed.
Typically politically incorrect,
assigned another life today.
Selectively numb at Fourty below Zero
silently holding on
