I don't give a ****,
that's what the singers say
and somehow
it goes top 20 and
the wise ones
they laugh,
they snicker,
because the ones that don't care
make a song about it

we live today in a world
where being different gets you
shamed
but,
if we're all different
what's the difference?

sometimes it's better to let art be

Sunset roses
falling on sky green horizons
the thickest winds couldn't
wash away the sins
of our fathers
yet,
the world has everything
well in its place
and what will be
will be
no matter our stance
on the issue
the presentation of the universe
remains the same

Another man's shoes never quite fit
the way you'd expect them to
but hey
go figure,
it's the walk that shapes the feet
and everyone's gone places
they would never visit
again

we think we're all on the same page
but
we're writing different books

we think we're literate but
we can only read our own story
and somehow,
every message we send is
unintentionally
encrypted
in ways the greatest minds couldn't decipher
yet we all look up and see
the same sky
the same moon
the same stars
and we all call this land
Own

The words on the paper flow endlessly
a cycle of dying and
living and
breathing and
choking
with pepper sprinkled in for
good measure

great is the depth of the
sea
that infinite battlefield where the
war never ends
the fishes themselves with not a moment of sleep
carry life as a trophy
we once called their land home
but
now it's a place where the world goes
to drown its sorrows

I can't stop
laughing haha
words are so ****
funny
lol
except when they
bleed
into the pages
and leave
scars
in the deepest recesses of
flesh that
haunt you as you
dream at night
killing every
fairy detail
in the fairy world you
escape to
the moment
you close
your eyes
Okay I admit I was bored haha

Everything
leaves an impression on
us
but we never know
where it
leads

We're all wrong
but
we think we're
Right
I guess thats better than being Left
behind
to fend for the self in this
dark
cold world
still,
the sky shines kinda bright
at night
doesn't it?
