Word-Played

Having fun with word play :)

"
I use word-play to play words like board games
I'm bored of games, say word if you've absorbed pain
Like swords to panes of glass, words can cause planes to crash
It's plain insane conduct, conductor waiving wands conducting slaves and pawns
A complex plot, criminal sin cynical complex
At the top of the pyramid, the metaphysical pinnacle
It's literal that literary litigations hold some sway in court
No courtesy or courtship in the court today I hold my tounge and pray
Their holding guns, I hold my hand up to my chest and hold my breath
But now my lungs are filled with death I think I'm going deaf
The tight rope is stressed, I can't stress the amount of stress that's weighing on my
Weighing on my, flesh, let's keep it fresh, I'm eating letters
Hearts are beating, jaws are falling like retreating feathers
Eating words and verbs are smacking lips and acting hip
Or grinding lips and grinding hips, this board is bored of flips
That line was trippin' what a trip, I felt like going on a trip until I tripped
I took a dip inside the pool of tobacco spit let's dip, I got the chips
On my shoulder man I'm pissed, I need to piss, Piss off already
Altogether I'm not all together, back then It was all to get her, now I'm doing better
Like a superior verb, it's a step of progression
Because inferior word-play wont be accepted, 
I play words like personifications play objects
You can't object, it's an object of objective truth
I'm the subject of the subtext with a subjective tooth
Rotting out of my defective perspective
I see prospects of words that cost less than the actual product
Introspective, mind is iridescent, I've become obsessive
Over fusing flowing flocks of letters, forever condensed inside my
fence, inside my head their turning like a, turing like a
planet on an axis, like a a new leaf, falling from the crawling tree of abused grief
I just can't help but let the syntax melt, My emotions feel like felt
I'm steel like spurs, I feel my nerves, my nervous system's full of worms
They're made of tape, I made a tape, of myself trying to deflate
My ego, man it's got me floating up to where the clouds break
I heard a loud snake slither and it made the ground quake
I heard a proud rose wither and it made no sound, wait
I said it made no sound, inaudible, no audio, so audios
I'm going back to where the pencil gave the paper's wedding toast
I'm fretting over frets like a guitarist with turrets
And now I'm betting on my death, there is a bounty on my breath

Author's Note

Apparition
I tried to use multiple meanings of words and play with the meanings, is it clear or redundant? Do you think it is complete or needs more? (or less?) ? What lines could it do without, what lines could it not do without? Thanks, Apparition

I am an apparition, a ghost in the system, the host's no longer the victim, the parasite grows weary of the barely alive flesh dressed in a hardly harrowing death caressed mess, stressful doesn't trul.. more..
