The Social Fires
Social Fires
The push of the swift winds of time
The boiling waters of expectations
Burn your soul to dust.
Hands held out to ****** your last earned dime.
The self appointed “Monks” of “Defined Existence”
Are not the Calm or the enlightened.
They are the “Controllers of Conformity.”
Individuality is non-existent in their eyes.
They push you towards the edge until you break.
Fires flare from your eyes.
You push back
Smoke and flames turned once blue into red skies.
They are on a time schedule.
Even when you don’t need to punch in.
Life is not work.
These “lost souls” fail to differentiate
“Chop, Chop”
An artist wishing to savor his moments
It is rushed to adhere to their educational lectures.
The resentment of becoming “a dog on a leash”
Heating up
Your Once calm and cool oceans
Simmer your waters to a blasting boil.
As you fight for your right to a brighter future
Fighting for your right of Free Ways of Motion
You wage war against those “puppet masters”
Who try and **** out the “worms”
Inspecting everyone under their microscope
Only to have their corporate thinking crumble
In their twisted means in their lives as which they cope
Burning down their forests of contempt
of those unlike a carbon copy of themselves
They are now merely blackened and smoldering ashes of the old
As you plant seeds of a greener jungle
For your courage to stand up to those oppressors that warm up the air once colder
You are now the teacher
These “lost puppet masters” are the newer students
A reverse role
Which is now, ohh, so prudent.
