Shamed to say-- Our eyes were transfixed-- a pig-tailed harlot in ******* gesture-- Our paradigm a construct of discontent and distraction, a mockery. All the while our minds made up-- The chemical ghost kept in its grave-- claims translucent as the agenda itself. Shamed to say-- The audience engrossed with North West; The East, a precarious little flame meandering on the sidelines of a nightmare we haunt whole. What will it take to break our gaze? How much longer will we suffer scrutiny? Take the helm and steer towards an effort for thought, or remain in forlorn ignorance, remain a mockery.
