Shoplifting these emotions everyday
and thinking up something new to say.
Tell you all a story and drop it in a rhyme
and sit around and contemplate away this time.
Writing away the best hours of the humid night
hoping to make them all turn out just right.
Whisking you away to yet another place
and hoping to do it all with some form of grace..
Dreams and lucid nightmares to openly share
to show how much we really do and don’t care
To open up and show the critisitic world whole
to help heal those black spots on your beleaguered soul
Open the door and let them all wander wide eyed around
and smile in content as their happy at what they come and found.
Get that recognition from the people who are here and real
since they are the real ones who have been left to feel.
Smile contentedly as they respect someone who had none
sitting his hours writing away, hiding from the bitter sun...
No outside contact other than a small few
since away from it all I’ve slowly grew...
I just look at the world in utter spender and bliss
and look forward to all the things that I’ll one day miss..
Sharing these visions and making you all wonder
if something I said or typed came out a blunder.
Did he mean seems or seams? You’ll never know
unless you let your mind expand and openly grow..
The english language is a jungle in which you have to live
where the people are always on the take, but hardly give..
I make up new words every chance that I happen to get
not like this is really an astounding use of a humans wit
but even a made up word like ethnitechnicallity .
was pretty good, even for me.
I’m sure people hate it for being so stupidly free..
since I’m sure that it really only makes sense to me.
