Could the World be About to Turn?

Could vous just take a second, a moment, one solid instant to visualize the boy in the stall with more felt lacerations than words of admiration. Could the bold, bright, beautiful ones start singing because I'm sick of the loud talk that goes through the motions of lingering in an echoed room as they "try" to save the oceans - tell me, did we litter on the way there? There's a forgotten world in stories told of heroes, breathing clean air. Could the world give one more shot (a mountainous event) because history needs valor. But technology is further than requirements for bravehearts to trigger a gun. Envision a man four foot high, who stands a flag where poppies lie because he was that lucky man who watched his fellows die I'll say, weaponry wields death to We, naught could prove me wrong. Could the world be a little bit more tight; bring back the mystery of gentlemen. We're too loose and on the edge of loss, and the cost - oh, the cost is sentimentality that somehow became disconnected when baring your soul and stripping bare became two and when I meet the one, my mind is plagued that we shall only amount to half. Could the world be about more than the new, the sophisticated or have too many eye closed to the life before the Dodo's died; now only one view: to screen the disease from the rescued swingers, sinkers and singers ahhhhhhhhh! basking in captivity: to compensate, we take back by metabolizing habitats. Could the world be about to - because me and mine are everywhere, but mind: the brain's likely to reach revelation. Clap, we will excel. After all, when the world explodes and we reconnect, I'm sure each will preach and teach and leech until it's known - We'll thank Gutenberg as needed, but printer is no master when the minds are intertwined. But P'haps it has been a bad morning because I've known you and you've bled true - long been fixing those around, so they aren't torches who warn off monsters, instead they shave down fangs of loathing, there's no - not one! - beast they burn. And don't I wonder? Ah yes, I do wonder: that now Could the world be about to turn?

Notes

I realize this can be slightly confusing, but I promise there's a reason for all of it, so feel free to ask questions. Mostly, I wanted to add world afflictions together because each is unique, but equally important and sometimes I forget the ones not in front of me.
