I'm Bred And Bleeding

Future fed,

I am past tense,

With pretense of post textual subtext.

 

But I'm in love with mental reflex,

That rebound and curve in action,

Reaction replicated and reduced,

Redistributed and digested through the nose,

Said then to then be brought down to a new low.

 

But it's hypocrisy,

And inert,

Like morality in children,

Who celebrate their own centennial,

While 10 children to each their year,

Are snuffed from this earth,

In quite the same fashion as the candles

On Mr.Centennial's cake,

And it's fake,

For he's a diabetic and suffers,

Having already forgot half the people he raised,

Sentimentality wasted on a senior,

Who shook hands with the devil,

And then smacked an angel off its cloud.

 

It makes me sick,

Such sin began,

Stopped to begin,

Walked thin and ran thick,

Over budget and understocked,

Cut backs on morality,

Cut backs on humanity,

They call this art,

The only proof of evolution,

Is how we slide down the chart.
