Restless Rebel, Control the Ball On the Ground

Restless rebel, control the ball on the gregarious ground
Looking within and hooking dignity to the home
Where a restive riposte resurrects the meandering mound

Detriment and its cement sediment groom
In search of answers and cancers
Growing without control and throwing mud on the room 

That without mercy plays into the hands of bouncers
Primed to jettison the happiness for which you crave
At the time and in the clime where pesky pouncers

Storm forth and chide the wonderful wave
That steers stability and versatility in the home where
Your truculence and petulance dig the grave

Where your treasure trove and freedom measure dare
To resist the onslaught of seething thoughts brought on board
To confuse order and disorder in your home, slaying vestiges of care

In the wake of asinine attitudes that accord
Dignity and sanity to restlessness which your home can’t afford 
As your restive riposte resurrects the meandering mound
Restless rebel, for the sake of stability, control the ball on your gregarious ground.
