I Am In a Paradox

I am in a paradox with visions of backwards clocks
knee high socks people popped with chicken pocks
the purple elephant has entered the room full of doom
who knew we had no clue what to do its gonna happen soon
rainbows reaction to reflection of water is beautiful
baptism parents raging priest slapping the lord is crucial
lines cleaned with a nose no one knows the blows
everyone dreams of life well lived we are all living our own shows
the laughter fades out the room with no reason for leaving
people taught old knowledge the monkey way of deceiving the believing 
the shark fin in the water guard your daughter fathers
men are out there mixed chemicals looking for slaughters
lucky be lucky who lucky is thee never ever me
fighting life constantly like a leprechaun trying to climb a redwood tree. -TA
