the rhythm of the city an emontionless machine
manufacturing reality shinny but unclean
built on sand and fantasy a mirror of mirage
reflected by the silver screen the chrome in the garage
vision blocked by concrete callused hearts encased
deafened by the drumbeat tongues to seared to taste
masked by thrum of engines and the chatter of the screen
the still small voice is buried the foot path isnt seen
Images and idols technology devised
words of cotton candy that dissolve before your eyes
intellect and science worshiped by decree
giving credit to illusion so the chained belive there free
fundamental skeletons in self-appointed roles
cloaking robes of office but carnivorous of souls
speaking words that come from knowledge but do not come from light
the letters lacking spirit addind darkness to the night

Mad props, THAT was well written. Especially this
Images and idols technology devised
words of cotton candy that dissolve before your eyes
intellect and science worshiped by decree
giving credit to illusion so the chained belive there free
One of my favorites on here...nicely done man... |
