Confusion

Green and Blue blotches With no reason Nor rhyme. Racing, like Purple chainsaws Dancing through my head Like sugarplums At Christmas time. Cross-eyed acrobats Jumping through Twisted rings of Nothing at all. Feels like I'm Falling and cracking Anxiously, like Humpty Dumpty Off the wall. Lies, deceit, and honor All hide underneath A woven blanket Of disbelief. I Can't Find Truth. I can no longer Find innocence. I can no longer Tell what's good for me None of this is making sense! Eyes on The clock... Bodies on The floor... Making some Sense again With the shelves Back in stock, And more guests at the door. Here we go again. I rise, I twist, I run, I leap, But I am Getting nowhere. Can't die, But can't seem To get my hand Off my gun. Are you lying Or winning Or losing Or stealing? You say These things until My head Won't stop spinning. Friends Roses Walls Shoes! Make some Sense of All this fusion! Now you can Taste my medicine, Just one Dose of My confusion.
