A Walk In the Forest

I punched you out for what it was That small space we call real estate Beyond the Island of doom the cock doodled at noon Then I saw that time for you Became more urgent More urgent than purchase I saw haunting silhouettes of the people you drove crazy I punched the clock that took advantage of time But you blowed up and you thought of the country and it's need needing you Sit down and listen that the world is calling us. Yo survival It's escalated from whisper to shouts But not only you ,everyone who can listen So far aware of what they do Skillfully planning their day How does it compare I have zero for those who won't be clear What has life become A giant marketing ploy One by one All get set I plow through the disasters and find my self under the foot of Tyrants Depend on yourself as doctor, shrink and someone else Protect from no one just yourself Everyone else does What they want life mutates into a cherry pie before the beginning of man Never underestimate the pie power and a journey Of which we be damned Its equal partners to kill at will With odds to favor gods who will remember the forest and the water Which once brought life Now just games with our lives
