Life was simpler in times antebellum
now volumes take ****** to cope.
As the tick tocking of the pendulum,
curriculums of war, leaves us without hope.

You can take what I say “*** grano salis”
simply pabulum for thought you see.
From my inner most sanctum, I tell you this,
it matters not what you think about me.

So lead with your best take a shot on a lark
Forever is closing in fast
If your lucky your thoughts may flicker and spark
Then come to fruition at last
