Overhanging words Reinforced for stability Gives no viability No consolation Overstating the reality Will not create any more viability Than what crystallizes like frost On the blades of winter morning grass Stare too long at the image And you will never notice it's gone Until it no longer exists So turn that evil inner eye From the portrait painted By the inner vision Still that will not contain The ever escaping pain When a need to prove Control... ... Of self-evaluation Only proves that you are the Creator That held check... ... On open channels Seeking the tunnel vision of self... ... WHAT ? Deniability? Not a good trade I don't believe For the path you were denied By the paint by number artist You became... ... And the way you fell victim To your own false pride!

Acceptance is... No consolation
Overhanging words Reinforced for stability Gives no viability No consolation Overstating the reality Will not create any more viability Than what crystallizes like frost On the blades of winter morning grass Stare too long at the image And you will never notice it's gone Until it no longer exists So turn that evil inner eye From the portrait painted By the inner vision Still that will not contain The ever escaping pain When a need to prove Control... ... Of self-evaluation Only proves that you are the Creator That held check... ... On open channels Seeking the tunnel vision of self... ... WHAT ? Deniability? Not a good trade I don't believe For the path you were denied By the paint by number artist You became... ... And the way you fell victim To your own false pride!
