I've been putting them down on paper In blue ink without a stop My mind being the exemplary model Hands committing the sins I've counted the number of times I slain the beasts on those pages Tear the paper and throw it Crumpled torn and frayed With every step I take The kaleidoscope reflects another mistake With every ray of light disappearing The shadows take the place I sit back in a modest way Greedy for the ripened fare A sound playing at one corner of my head Embodying cognitive dissonance My fate is warbling Symmetrically.
