White blank pages, wars through the ages, reminiscing the fallen but forgetting their faces. Turning the blank page, only to amplify our rage, living the dream; getting by on minimum wage. Every day is a struggle, so we lacerate our morals, no concern laid fourth, reflecting on our laurels. Criticized on a subject that was laid upon the table, choking on my pride only to find I was able. Mis-lead interpretation, personified through false conclusion, has un-wound my path, representing deluded illusion. Approached by a stranger, as he clenched for my grasp, soon I was awoken, and daunted of my past. The man’s fragile nature, and disheveled presence, only beckoned for the call of a cheap, lousy peasant. Disentangling his mysteries, wasn’t on the agenda, but allowing him hope, meant less chance of surrender. Now I find myself here, far away from a throne, sacrificing my living, and everything I own. The poor, ragged peasant ceases to exist, and to top it all off, Grandma’s knickers are in a twist. So down I went, on both my knees, closed my eyes and began to squeeze. I couldn’t see anything, that was for sure, but what happened next, well what a ****** ***** The ***** old Grandma lay down on her bed, took off her underwear, and this is what she said: I’ve got a magic sixpence, will you come and give it a rub, I’ve got hairy canary, and a belly full of flub. Bewildered at this shocking scene, oh fast I did run, only to be pulled by the neck, then up went her thumb. ***** old Grandma, this just isn’t right” “oh wind your ****** neck in son, I can’t believe you’re so tight!” Grasping for air my lungs began to bulge, I headed for the nearest exit, only to be told. “Son, there’s one lesson to be learnt in life” “Oh really, is there Grandma?” “Yes”, she said. “That is ******* right.”
