Gruesome blister on a denatured mind Chimes rumble the anchored soul foggy with Elysian wine Flippant ruse ignites a battered fuse rusty with malevolent impotence Blustery portents beyond expired extent throngs the chapels and pickets along the electrified fence That separates the grave from the gravity of a physics enslaved A physics where disillusioned mathematics and decay are as sure as taxes and the last earthen day Nescient of giant leaps our stepwise ascension is helical and cheap It snails along with unctuous repetition of pendulous rhythm and sails biologically with evolved and animated meat The advent of acid and bass is a keepsake for the epicurean chase Of a fulgurant galvanization of phases that remain unfazed Trends punctuate vain diversions and lionized conversions both raise and raze The velocity of money ensures a melliferous alchemy of a well-oiled plutocracy buffered by praise and pay Ivory-tower elegance is immune to demotic ignorance When the shot-callers devise the rules to the game with impenetrable clandestine eloquence Hebetude and lassitude sink abundant platitude and offer trite prescriptions for useless attitudes But the vogue of disembogued vanity entraps individualism and trains martial raillery Trends tantalized by preening epigamic tens makes the roosters become owls that neglect nest egg hens Fatuous ambush of the Kardashian putsch is as clockwork as Big Ben Murky lies appear in flimsy disguise suitable for mice “say cheese” demise Privacy cries and answers only lurk accessibly when spurred by wise “why’s” never asked when garish time flies Tweets and beats make us obese with threadbare wheat cultivated by nescient bleats Beatific ambition obscured by the wail of sheepish sheep Outnumbered by obtuse angels and a cute horde of meretricious dissolution that ever wrangles The shelter turns to rubble and the cloister turns to bustle: useful convolution thus entangles Agorophilia defiles a voiceless lechery on speed dial Disembodied violence sprints a green mile bankrolled by the peaceful throngs slowed through the paid but dilatory turnstile Thus we loiter in queue as the slew of vibrant militarized celerity taxes our pews Pews which enthuse jingoism eager to apportion sentient deaths through religious abuse We can surf beams of light chasing verisimilitudes of diversion bright Of unwagered immersion gambling a pittance for vicarious thrills and riskless fright To discover the vestige of war, a useless artifact of sore egos we now deplore An enormity of unmoored evil percolating apace of the paradoxical rush hour from shore to shore But more decisively than an implacable brush fire on pristine ground abetted by sleek star-crossed winds that soar Irenic ignorance placates, because a vagrant vacant mind is more a felicity than a bellicose grimy crease Because excess corrodes squinty detests, and partial enslavement is both a rest and arrest to earth’s untenanted lease

Arrest to Earth's Untenanted Lease
Gruesome blister on a denatured mind Chimes rumble the anchored soul foggy with Elysian wine Flippant ruse ignites a battered fuse rusty with malevolent impotence Blustery portents beyond expired extent throngs the chapels and pickets along the electrified fence That separates the grave from the gravity of a physics enslaved A physics where disillusioned mathematics and decay are as sure as taxes and the last earthen day Nescient of giant leaps our stepwise ascension is helical and cheap It snails along with unctuous repetition of pendulous rhythm and sails biologically with evolved and animated meat The advent of acid and bass is a keepsake for the epicurean chase Of a fulgurant galvanization of phases that remain unfazed Trends punctuate vain diversions and lionized conversions both raise and raze The velocity of money ensures a melliferous alchemy of a well-oiled plutocracy buffered by praise and pay Ivory-tower elegance is immune to demotic ignorance When the shot-callers devise the rules to the game with impenetrable clandestine eloquence Hebetude and lassitude sink abundant platitude and offer trite prescriptions for useless attitudes But the vogue of disembogued vanity entraps individualism and trains martial raillery Trends tantalized by preening epigamic tens makes the roosters become owls that neglect nest egg hens Fatuous ambush of the Kardashian putsch is as clockwork as Big Ben Murky lies appear in flimsy disguise suitable for mice “say cheese” demise Privacy cries and answers only lurk accessibly when spurred by wise “why’s” never asked when garish time flies Tweets and beats make us obese with threadbare wheat cultivated by nescient bleats Beatific ambition obscured by the wail of sheepish sheep Outnumbered by obtuse angels and a cute horde of meretricious dissolution that ever wrangles The shelter turns to rubble and the cloister turns to bustle: useful convolution thus entangles Agorophilia defiles a voiceless lechery on speed dial Disembodied violence sprints a green mile bankrolled by the peaceful throngs slowed through the paid but dilatory turnstile Thus we loiter in queue as the slew of vibrant militarized celerity taxes our pews Pews which enthuse jingoism eager to apportion sentient deaths through religious abuse We can surf beams of light chasing verisimilitudes of diversion bright Of unwagered immersion gambling a pittance for vicarious thrills and riskless fright To discover the vestige of war, a useless artifact of sore egos we now deplore An enormity of unmoored evil percolating apace of the paradoxical rush hour from shore to shore But more decisively than an implacable brush fire on pristine ground abetted by sleek star-crossed winds that soar Irenic ignorance placates, because a vagrant vacant mind is more a felicity than a bellicose grimy crease Because excess corrodes squinty detests, and partial enslavement is both a rest and arrest to earth’s untenanted lease
