Tinker, tailor, soldier, **** Still on the wrong end of a gun, and I feel like a walking phallus-y, spelled with a "ph" A balancing act on a ballast beam I'm sick of splitting pills Like splitting hairs Over an equal piece of the same share I'm sick of playing fair Like alliteration taught to an illiterate In a post-biblical nation I’m trying on your patience And the monstrosity that is my social viscosity Is borne consciously Proceed cautiously But who would I be without the depravity? The sick and sadder me? Another puzzle piece probably Resigned to believe his beliefs aren't faulty Fuckin' salty, and Steeped in a brine of designer beef and corn feed Too yellow to bleed No When I speak, I beg you to see Suffering is a similarity, synonymous with life So proudly riddled with strife, I spit This wisdom demands sacrifice

Depravity
