Ephemeral Recollections On the Passage of Time

Ephemeral Recollections of the Passage of Time Ephemeral recollections of the passage of time General inspections of a population in decline Congenital directions of a genealogy in scientific refine Perennial distortions of a perspective in pure mime Elegant notions of a theory on entropy Pertinent commotions of what the third eye can truly see Innocent devotions about what it’s like to live in poverty Malcontent emotions over what it means to be truly free Singular visions for the indiscriminately proud Angular decisions as you power through the crowd Rectangular incisions on the throats of the politically loud Perpendicular divisions as the dead are placed into their shrouds A cacophony forming at the base of a mountain range The topography calling out the wierd and indiscriminately strange The cartography of the wicked and the fundamentally derranged The anthropology of society and what it means to be defamed Litigious corporate lawyers claiming their money on the side Ambitious politicians out for what they cannot hide Pernicious inhibitions of a man enslaved by pride The vicious extraditions of those who just jumped on for the ride Enlightening notions of the concepts of spiritual awakening & transcendence Frightening potions of imposition and rememberance Lightening bolts of intuition and incendiary elegance Siphoning jolts of inhibition as we see through the embellishments Contaminated water and superficial elements of decay The celebrated quarter of what it means to have your say The inundated distorter of truth among the games that we play The contentious border of Ukranian land on international display We walk this earth in discontent and observation of the crimes And give a wide girth to the consequence of the symbol of the times But what we have learned in the enlightened abstinence has created pure refine And what we’ve earned in the brightened elegance, as we proudly step out of line
