For gone mad man

Topic:
insomniac
|
Everything is moving too slow
All sounds reverberate like a distant echo
Like a crazy mad man I babble on
Everything is being said and nothing is withdrawn
There are days I feel like a single hair on Castro’s beard
Insignificant but in mass numbers revered
There are days I feel like a recited mantra
Said often but rarely understood
Everything is being said but nothing is withdrawn
So my lips move on
My heart is personified like the Yukon
Often cold though people live hereon
The laces in my shoes often speak
Of the pains of the modern workweek
So my lips move on
Any formalities forgone
Just like Santa
I drink shots of vodka
Drunken sleigh rides
Wasted we vomit by children’s bed sides
Me and big red buddies till the end
Any formalities forgone
Prepare to be offended hereon
Like a lost child I wonder
Like a holy man turned hooker
Like the great philosopher Homer
I think I know the answer
It involved a disgruntled butler and some chowder
Space and time hardly matter
In a place that exists pointless chatter
The people you fake friends with
Tell them you hate them and end that myth
My mind wanders in endless circles
The world annoys me like an army of Eurkles
To destroy them all would be an insurmountable task
So I put on a mask and join the Family Matters cast
I don't wear trendy clothes or a mesh trucker hat
I don't say what's up homes or own a yoga mat
The world is somehow different to me
Is it just me or am I the only one to see.
