Lick it or Leave it

Contributed by Jyssvw22 on Thursday, 22nd June 2006 @ 05:30:30 PM in AEST
Topic: oops

Here on planet Earth
Whims are granted in thirds
Finish your food
Or you won’t get dessert
Lick the plate clean
Nothing goes to waste
Nothing is empty space
A simple case
Of a mistaken identity phase
With a multiple personality face
From onset to an elaborate escape
Scattered like tongues on a forgotten taste

Leave the wreckage for the wrecking crew
A message was delivered
The messenger never knew
Links of events which escalade into the present tense
Content in the moment of relevance
Upset by the lack of upward bliss
A close shot yields to the near miss
A tear traded for the chance of a kiss
Enhance the reception or static interrupts the seductive hiss
The whisper of truthfulness
Mister and misses
Mistresses and minerals with delicious
Nutritious providing conditions
Revisions outdating original scripts
A visit from the fairy tales on which they insist
Are true meanings of lessons on life and its gifts
And so the expanding rift
Indeed does exists

Here in the real world
You don’t get everything you wish
You can’t say a magic word
And suddenly you’re indulged
Magically you’re fulfilled
A mere celebratory thrill
Shallower in term of your resistance
Words bounce off chests
And leap into pockets
Swept and unkempt
Under the carpet of neglect
Where no one protects your neck
No one bothers to take a hard look
Or even periodically check

Holy S*** jyss..
this moved so fast and with so much intent, I could barely grasp it~
..that second stanza is beyond brilliant my friend-
it's gotta be the way you quickly halt verse, that captures me.. not to mention your emotive, down-to-earth POV..
I'd love to critique this for another few paragraphs
but I digress.. lol

this is classic YOU in all its forms!!
MAN, did I love this-

Your BIGGEST fan-
