One Fifty One

One Fifty One 8/14/2013

Another day drags on
But the siege is the same
Predictable and unrelenting
With fake outrage
And petty stupidity.

It just takes one time
For the answer to gel
Because who needs money
And who needs a name.

You don’t have to be a genius
To figure out
What it means, to be free
And what it means,
To grow up.

It is a sad thing
That the truth can cost you
Your job or your living
But it’s still worse,
If your existence
Can cost you your life.

People sit at tables
And beat a fossilized horse
Fighting imaginary enemies
In all the wrong ways.

You cannot fight a war
If you cannot acknowledge his methods,
Beliefs, and desires
And You cannot survive
If you will not
Protect yourself.

How much can words mean?
When everything you see is artificial
And every promise you hear
Is a lie.

Yes it is; another day
Drip, drip and drop drop
As the clock ticks downward
On our way
To something new.

Nothing lasts forever
And this is also good
Because everybody should know
That something is very wrong.

Don’t feed the beast
And don’t waste your time
On another day in a dream world
That doesn’t mean a thing.

Reality is here
And it’s good to be ready
For anything
And anyone.
