where are you located on front street?
i'm the last house on the end
which end?
depends on which end you're coming from

is it on the right or the left?
it depends which way you're facing

well, how do i get to you from the south side?
from the south, i am north
from the north, i am south
from the east, i am west
from the west, i am east

so...where are you coming from?
i guess i don't know until i find out where you're located!
If this confuses or offends you, then it is for you

The ground leveled before my foot stepped
The chasm bridged as I blindly crossed
The world shaped and changed that I become
Then I saw in ignorance I'd asked
pain only hurts
when you know it is pain
the bliss of ignorance
cancels out the ache
hurt me if you like
i will be ok
the not knowing is my silent saviour
the same way i don't know faith
the bliss of ignorance cancels out the ache

One day I'll catch you
front and center
on the outskirts
of your city
riding along
a conveyer belt
you'll be dressed
quite insensibly
idling back and forth
along the past
happy in your
pathway hang-ups
and far too distracted
to notice we've become
skull and crossbones

In that ignorant
crowd, He found two companions,
Pain and loneliness!
This modern fast paced world is making people weak and lonely

Ya Know There Is This THING...
That TRULY STINKS... !!!
That Some Just CAN’T Resist...
  
The Bliss of IGNORANCE... !!!
  
And How It Now Functions...
In Today’s... Humans... !!!
  
It’s NOT All of Us... !!!
  
But There CLEARLY Are Some...
Who Think The Rest Are Dumb...
  
And Just CANNOT See...
THEIR Jealousy And Envy...
And... INCREDIBLE Lack...
of... Compassion... !!!
  
When It Runs In Blacks...
Some Resort To Guns...
Or REFUSE To Act...
With Respect For Those...
Who Are Quick To EXPOSE...
How Their Ignorance Flows...
  
Because They Hate To Be Told...
How It Is That They Roll...
  
So Choose To Behave...
Like A TRAITOROUS SLAVE... !!!
Whose Brotherly Love...
Becomes A Thing That STUNS... !!!
  
When They Cannot Agree...
To Just... DISAGREE... ?!?
And Show RESPECT...
Instead of IGNORANCE...
  
Especially When...
Their Attempt To Be Friends...
Proves To Be A LIE...
That They HIDE BEHIND...
Because of Their PRIDE... !!!
  
So Of Course They Then TRY...
To DISTURB Your CHI... !!!
..... INCESSANTLY..... !!!
  
By Using Moves...
Like... Ku Klux Guys...
  
And Even Wives...
Choose To Stand Behind...
These IGNORANT Types...
Who Are TRULY SLY... !?!
  
You See Ignorant Minds...
Let Friendships DIE... !!!
  
Because of Vibes...
Where Their Thinking Incites...
The Type of Fights...
That Children Like...
  
Or The HATEFUL Type...
That Drives Racist Whites... !!!
  
But This Also Applies...
To... ALL Skin Types...
Within Our Human Kind... !!!!!
  
It’s A Flaw That You Find...
  
In The KNOW IT ALLS...
Who Seem To Ignore...
That’s Right Their Own Flaws... !!!
  
Always Running Their Jaws...
With The Type of Talk...
That Makes Them Squawk... !!!
  
Just Like Chickenhawks...
Or... Foghorn Leghorns... !!!
  
The Type of Jokers...
With Standards Lower...
Than Donald Trump Voters... !!!
  
Constant BOASTERS...
And YES ALL KNOWERS...
  
Whose Ignorance Smoulders...
And Burns Away...
WITHOUT ANY SHAME... !!!
  
The Type Who Make Claims...
That Real Fakes DON’T MAKE...
  
Imma' Say That AGAIN...
  
The Type Who Make CLAIMS...
That REAL Fakes Don’t Make... !?!
  
Always Trying To Do Good...
But Look Under Their Hood...
And What You’ll Find...
Are HYPOCRITICAL Vibes...
That They Choose To DENY... !!!
  
TRULY... INCREDIBLE People...
Who Define The Word Feeble... !!!
  
In The DEEPEST Way... !!!
  
But DON’T MISTAKE...
These Words I Say... !!!
  
As Meaning That They...
Don’t Make Their Way...
Within This Life...
Because Many Have Wives...
And Have Yes Bred Child...
  
And Have Built A Life...
Where They’re Living Alright...
  
What I’m Saying Is THIS...
They EXHIBIT Things...
In How They Think...
That You SHOULDN’T Dismiss... !!!
  
Because There’s...
Something AMISS... ?!?
In People Who ACT...
Like They Shouldn’t Retract...
Or... Apologise For...
The Type of Talk...
That Runs From Their Jaws...
  
That Is... WEAK And FLAWED... !!!
  
That Helps Them To Function...
Like Some Kind of PUNK... !!!
  
Who CLAIMS To Deal In LOVE... !!!
  
When Their Form of LOVE...
Truly STINKS Like SKUNKS... !!!
  
Like The Skin They Live In...
That Embraces THIS THING...
  
That Is Simply THIS...
  
“ The Bliss of Ignorance “...
A twist on the saying, that is sadly something, that a lot of folks are now embracing !

Racist in a cab,
deputized,
weaponized,

Heading for the wealth
of the Tulsa Wall Street,

His hateful hands cannot
drown God in an pond,
but they've often
lynched his sons.

If I were like air then I'd breathe you.
As I sit in the the bowl and observe.
I'd never succeed in the quest that I'm freed.
I'll rot though, if I had the nerve.

Just take me and pick as I ripen.
Bite me, as nectar escapes to your chin.
Enraptured by spell to entice you again.
And feast on sweet secrets within.

But leave me and pass with your ignorance.
Overlooked as I signal my true end of days.
For I will repay you with sorrow.
As my beauty fades, waving farewell decays.
