Inadequate So They Say
A Story Of How This World Can Bring One To Defeat......
Decrepit agony stumbles upon rain lit streets, an aimless soul wanders......in
desperation, he mumbles confusing pain. Lifeless and beat, a need that he resents,
he tips the bottle to his mouth, oblivion once again. Brutal words of this world
have cast a cloud of gray, in years that have past, a man believed in all the deceivers
had to say, devastated, a man falls victim to greed, deceit and wicked games.
Inadequate slurs they spoke in vein had slowly become ingrained,
and he, he believed. Along the river he sits alone, a lesson for humanity........
