Its like this...

No matter the depth of these words/
No chatter could capture the pure absurd/
The aftermath of a shattered curse/
is nevertheless at its worst..../
Bursts of energy replace the fatigue/
of planting some faith in these wasted seeds.../
Waiting for taste of the fruit off the tree/
Debating the colors of changing leaves/
Ranging free like a caged hen/
Bang my head to the wall til it caves in/
Farewell to the fallen and brave men/
who took up defense of our sins.../
Pretense and amends
are two different ends.../
The means are the same
and it mixes and blends/
Talk some shit!
and when finished press send/
Now is a product of then..../
Cleanse my heart is my only prayer/
to wherever it started (whoever's out there)/
I flail in the air and the onlookers stare;/
Removed like a hair after Nair.../
Spare change is now an obsolete term/
Trying to find a lesson and learn
on the merry go round as it turns/
Sicker than sick at the lack of concern/
cus the sound of the silence still burns/
Returns to my heart and visits my dreams/
Shatters the pure of a glistening stream/
Rattles the nerves and is not what it seems/
but I'm already sure what I've seen.../
Senses keen off adrenaline and caffeine/
Tryna fight fatigue while explaining what I mean/
Routines so straight obscene
that I find it hard to breathe/
Its time we start resisting this MACHINE...

Once again is the incredible, rhyme edible. your lines are like cocaine with highs deep in the brain that makes eyes stare as from your mind you blare with words unheard from thou lips absurd.

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
