Civil Servant

This is.... well, something.

~Significance~

 

 

If I really need counsel or guidance,

I always seek a contented child

They tell me what they think, and their answers

 just simple reason,…. undefiled

 

 

   Some days my heart burns my eyes, with confusion and agony.

    Trying to hold a peace of mind,

             Make the best of catastrophe…..

 

When I was young…..

 

              I wasn’t so bothered as I listened to,

  The teachers preach and the preachers teach.

         They lost their significance when I realized they both were lying.

 

 

 

   I contemplated their ‘intention’ and I grew……

 

             I didn’t care about war’s obscenity

Free of rationalization, I was also free of the stench.

      This feuding is only significant, to the weak, to the divided.

 

  Wielding the sword of truth, pain became my mentor and

fear, my friend….

 

 

The more I know the stronger I am, heavy grows responsibility

                       But I own what is before my eyes….and..

         Free of the Craft, I’ve grown these wings…..

 

 

 

Hey little girl could you tell me, what will be our end?

Crazy man, you have not seen the beginning,

so for you there is no end.

It just goes around and around and on and on……..

 

Tell me,….then, if you can……

When will the dead rest, and when will we see the ‘NewWorld’?

Tch’.…What you look forward to has already come.

 

……But of course, you do not know it.

You’re right has wronged your rhythm and now your …gone…..

 

 

To much time spent hating time,

For a moment or two of rest.

We built a world out of insecurity,

And convinced ourselves it was best.

 

 

One body uses less than he needs,

No body takes more than they give.

The reason things are like they are today,

Is because nobody really wants to live…

  Enough to care for life.

 

 

Hey mister black widow spider, in the corner under my sink.

Thanks for eating all those flies.

And I’m sorry about those cans of CertainDeath…

In pestilence and pain we’ll writhe.
