Deep Sea of Ignorance
Wow! I cannot believe everything is gone;
Like innocent preludes of childhood
Nestled in a spirit of leisure,
Or a teachers pet dropping off an apple.
Sometimes I get sick and tired remembering
Them good and bad old times. Those days
Where freedom from responsibility spangled,
Into a clear,deep sea of ignorance.
What diabolical person needs my space?
Confirmational bragging rights
Explains that nobody is really somebody.
But does anybody truly pay attention?
Confusion is going up and down my spine
A dying breed emerges unscathed
I've lost the arks magnificent powers
To reconcile the when and how.
