welcome one and all
i assume since your here
you've started to fall
see your vision is clear
your having a ball
join us up here
take up the call

the government is wrong
it tears itself apart
they won't last too long
they are people without heart
they'll never here our song

so **** em
we left em
forget em

we are together watching from a distance laughing and playing and enjoying what is around us without having all of the rules that we as a species have imposed upon ourselves through years of mental debauchery constantly trying to get ahead of the guy next to us constantly consuming simply for the sake of consuming we dont need but the plague of man kind can be reduced to one little word "want"

I saw that dress
             You wore
         On another girl
That loved me more

If maybe just for a minute
                           It lasted four

A different highway
                      Of curves

Without directions

                Same black dress
With different attractions

I calculated it all

Additions
                    Subtractions

The way she moves
   Versus your habits

            Same black dress
With ridiculous passion

Capricious
                       ******

Mmm¡

           The way she walks
     That black dress talks
About how you're nothing

                 And me she wants

Every step of that mellifluous dress
Was melodic and harmonic
                   With the way I drift

     That dress you wore
On some other woman
              Some other lady

Obsequious to my roar

Gallavanting around town
                                On my arm

I saw that dress
             You wore
On another girl

And that's how I
Forgot your name

Hopeful I am
Tomorrow will surely be auspicious
Life is a game
Sometimes the dilemma can be worrisome,
but winning blows away the pain
I know tomorrow is for the one who prepares today
Yes I know, I think we all know
All these words gallavanting in my head
I pray I learn to make good use of them
Action is what will make me what I envision
But I sit here all day building castles in my head
If wishes were realities all men would be living in different worlds
Here I stand, Here I am
The laws of the land still takes its toll on me
I know tomorrow is going to be great
Yes I know
Action must speak
The hopeful must achieve!
No matter the struggles there are still better days ahead
Aimée Jul 2022
The world is splendid
Just become some words exist
And elicit pure emotion like

Sinister and Sundance
Miserly malevolence
Traipsing troubadors
Effervescence and efficacy
Roguish racketeering
Peevish, and prismatic
Incandescent and inundated
Flippant, frivolous, fictitious
Beleaguered and boarish
Opulent and obstructive
Gaunt and Gallavanting
Visceral and villainous
Whimsical wanderlust

A list that could flowing infinitely
And thankfully it does
Alright poets! Add to the list! Which words strike you when you hear them used perfectly??
