Chandy 6d
Trading the real
Creating a joke
You jest and lie
Because that's your home
Cracking jokes
Sarcastic moans
Scholastic prose
Everything is a joke
To a plastic pro
Chandy Jun 19
Loaf to slices
Crackers to crumbs
Savings to starving
Space to crowds
Smiles to frowns
Every generation, worst to best
Returning empty-handed
Just like the rest
Chandy Jun 19
Bleeding ears
Tinittus
Not from me, must be you
Noise pollution
Covering eyes and ears
Like you could look
The mirror reveals all
Who caused this pollution?
Species, for all to see
Never slurred or stuttered
Cold hard truth
Warmed by hands
With blood all over
Chandy Jun 19
Resistant to the cure
Vulnerable to the infection
Poisoned chalice for the emperor
Drugged for peace
Suppressed for the least
Turned into who?
No one knows where I came from
Floating in space
Irreality, my new reality
Crazy and confused
It must be reality

Bullets fly
But the damage is skin deep
Masquerade ball
But the mask is on all day
Crossing cultures
But the purpose is monetary
Fighting for peace
But fighting never stops
Running in circles
But the path was made
Noise canceling
But the meaning never penetrates
One side goes down
The other goes up
Not even ground  
There is no even ground
Chandy Jun 14
Tides that grow with every hour
We will always be the punisher
Kings and queens and presidents
No matter the place
The world refused to change
But we are not the whole world
Denizens of bored space
Children are born to laugh
Walking out into the sun
To fall into graves
With no ground
Now our pain remains
Most cannot change
Life still remains the same
Chandy Jun 14
All I ever wanted was to be me
As I get older, the past gets foggy
Who I was and who I will be
Intertwine into a twisted philosophy
What am I?
When will I be me?
The world offers answers
But only in extremes
Staring deep into the dark
Sanity on a string
Always asking what I will bring
The bell always rings
Never brings peace
I would say I have a future
But who will I be?
