Absence of mind, soul and body
Lack of self-control
Balcony view of the fall beneath you
Back track and give back every heart you stole.
Collaborate in a scheme of bad ideas
Hear the music from another room
Disposable hunger and loss of vision
A long distance relationship full of doom.
Energetic fingers type out a love song
Bringing the audience to its knees
Freakish occurrences with belated apologies
You can’t see the forest because of the trees.
Gullible daughters and a will to live
Bleeding in battle means you’ve already won
Humorous lines with fading glory
We fight the wars but lose our sons.
Inhibitions lost and never uncovered
Deadly plagues invade our town
Justified forces of an alien mob
Venture into your own world of lost and found.
Kindness and security give way to stupidity
Fondling yourself because it passes time
Lacerations of the back and neck
Touching yourself has become a crime.
Molestation gives way to personal pleasures
Ripping apart at the seams
Neglecting your need for relaxation
Haunted by all your dreams.
Original sin and stipulation
Fielding questions from the news
Penetration seems almost perfect
Setting yourself up to lose.
Quote a celebrity’s asinine opinion
With a certain shade of green
Resilience worn like a drenched puppy
Cover your face because you don’t want to be seen.
Sexuality chased with alcohol
Like a chewable animal vitamin
Temptation of salvation
And starting a fight again.
Understanding in an accident
Drown in a pool of your blood
Violent burden unaware
Of exactly where you stood.
Willing to change your future
By talking to a star
X-ray vision erases everything
Drowning your symptoms at the bar.
Yesterday it ended and today it began
Again you fell into the abyss
Zodiac-type pinstripe perspective
But that is something you will never miss.

goddamn. i loved that. and my appreciation of other people's work is becoming rare these days. but this piece was well thought out, well worded, and it actually had a message, rather than just being some pointless drivel slopped together for comments.
"great write" or "good job" wouldn't do this justice, so i'll just say it's the best i've read in awhile.
