Damn

Dive into your own damned lake, Take the turn - I'm going straight. Your intended failed mistake Has defined your only fate. No, I cannot stop the herd, I can't drain your ego's gall. I can neither beat one nerd Nor by words defeat them all. But my keen and poignant phrase Does reveal my only wish: Live your own rusty days, Poison your f---- up damned dish! In your masks you look the same, As perfection cheats on you. You deny your spirit's lame, And this way you prove it true.

"As perfection cheats on you", a powerful and thoughtful personification. Enjoyed reading.
