"Cheetos Chewing Charity" (Dude! Who Stole My Soul?)

 

 

 

“CHEETOS CHEWING CHARITY”

(Dude! Who Stole My Soul?)

 

　

My lackadaisical sarcastic streak

Often hides what is painfully obvious

YOU DON’T MESS WITH ME

(DUDE SERIOUSLY)

 

 

I have both fists SWINGING

Against the cold stale air

Easily flared temper cocked

JUST LIKE MY RIGHT FIST

 

 

You come into my mind

And wonder where’s the exit

The only one is suicide

 

 

I snort the toxic hash

The semblance of sinister rebellion

Because that's what gives me

The intense rush of a thousand melodies

 

 

Society is a broken condom

Spitting its stupid climax

Perpetually on my sweet parade

 

 

The subtle sweetness of yesterday

Has crushed against toxic tomorrow

While I silently scream MURDER

　

The future waits for no one

Only by exiting the game

Refusing to cross the (finish) line

Can you ever truly win

 

 

Twinkle dark ebon star

Rain acidic dust on me

As the gentle crush of giants

Wade through raging oceans

 

 

Only at night when alone

Does the proper facade of life

Fall like these acidic tears

With the uncertainty of tomorrow

[THE LOST ROSE]

I feel the anger as it leaped off the page. It is interesting that you were able to captured a period in time so well and that you wrote a poem that can the test of time. Everyone has had those moments and as long as we stay humans we will continue to have those moments. This stanza was awesome. It was a poem all by itself;

I snort the toxic hash
The semblance of sinister rebellion
Because that's what gives me
The intense rush of a thousand melodies.

Great Write!

For one, the anger in the poem was displayed very well. Interesting at some points, it could make a pretty good rap song for all you know. =]

Wow this is absolutely interesting! This is sad but so true of today's youth. I was intrigued but not surprised by the heavy truth in the words as you described the young society. I especially liked the line:

Society is a broken condom
Spitting its stupid climax
Perpetually on my sweet parade.

Things have definitely changed in this wicked world and thus our youth have been affected. No morals, no regards to life, and just down right destructive in all aspects. This is an eye opening piece and very motivational. Excellent penned piece!
