Story Telling

Anticipatory overtones of indiscretion Summoning the spare change of society To rise up above normality And to…. Super sonic microfilms of history Telling a different story A time when things were black and white Preserved forever to a disk Word <> spoken splices the audience Full of eagerness and personality Piercing each cerebellum Downward to their heart Nothing like the monotony of times past Somewhat ***** Examining the inner scope Kaleidoscoptically Pierced nations of young hooligans Dancing the night away To a beat that doesn’t change And loving it Sticks make the stickular Drums make the drumular Pipes make the pipular Cymbals make symbolism Searching for fulfillment In what we think will work Hoping to chase the right road But there is no right road Life is just what it says -Life- Four letters put together one day To explain or not explain everything Giving us something to search for And find true meaning Trying to be the one Who figured it out! Giving us an outlet An outlet for our minds to focus No focus -Dead- Life definitely tricky at times Not always what is expected Maybe always the same Day after day The days go by and life lives on Understanding the understandable Not knowing why But accepting Taking the good with the bad And moving forward To me, that’s the most important part Moving forward Maybe I’m just a cowboy Searching for new influences Something that will make my art fresh New, for lack of a better word All that art really is Something to look at Make us think for a minute And move on Going back occasionally to reflect Think about a moment in your life Compare it to where you are now Hopefully happy with the choice
