Realities of Illusions

Realities of Illusions

In my idiosyncratic INSANITY
How do I reach hypocritical HUMANITY?
If I used pretentious PROFANITY
Would it create a maniacal MENTALITY?
For I’m tired of the belligerent BRUTALITY
As I try to restore mystical MORALITY

REALITY of illegitimate illusions within sepulchral solutions
Within our life’s VITALITY, we lack veracious vivacity

It is just a frugal FORMALITY to escape ubiquitous URBANITY
Within innate INANITY the phoenix shall rise in its virginal VOLCANITY
All this in my MUNDANITY hoping to avoid a flagitious FATALITY.
