Three convicts outside the Marquee
Their minds are marked with loss
Patiently waiting for my appearance
But they didn’t know the cost
Of ending up knowing their enemy was their boss
I controlled them like puppets and I gave them the toss
Debra, she is a toolbox
Being picked up by the fixer
She ate her individuality
And drank in conformities’ elixir
But it ended up being poison not the promised cure
Empty eyed and mortified she helped nail in the fixture
Waiting by the window
The stray cat’s perch smokes it’s cigarette
After gambling with life
And loosing every card on the bet
Now it slinks under her kingdom and tries not to be upset
Never realizing just who it is who should pay that debt
Stooped on his latest blunder
Joker boy laughs at dancer child
After promising his heart sanity
Then letting it run wild
Now, looking on like a warlord, he’s nauseous at what he has riled
“Oh please”, he boasts sincerely, “Let me be reconciled”
Give way, the opinions of everyone
Who are stuck inside the town library
Who read into Stephen King
Then complain when it gets scary
You best not read into the world, things could get a little hairy
I’d never settle for bookworm, but luck out on the contrary
Answer me Saint Thompson
What is this all about?
I’d like to holler some kind of message
But my mouth’s zipped and I can’t shout
Now all I can do, is scribble down rants and pout
Won’t you come down from the farm and help me out?
When nothing seems to be working
While you’re organizing everything you thought
And you find yourself searching
Never thankful for what it is you’ve bought
You’re going to end up getting your pretty fingers’ caught
Just keep it all together; and you’re shoes will loosen their naught
