Sunken Sandals

Senselessly, you talk You ramble on...ears do bleed Listen to the heart stomps Thoughtlessly, you think You smell the stench of ancient Dust and sand...it sinks Into your nostrils Suddenly, a change of mind Buds into forced change Consideration Is what you don't have right now Gained recognition You'll gain back your pride As long as confidence rules Get humility! Good qualities rust You kicked me into the dust Bust good moves - a mist Stolen sensation Don't worship vain gods, just Him Revealed sullen feet Barefoot to the core Cats don't have 9 lives, but more Carve your eyes on trees Feline fleas bite me, Sucking up the bitter blood Innocent, good blood Not bad boy gone good I have done so many wrongs... ~~~Drifting away-ay~~~ Press your paw prints here Match it up with my sandals, Sullen like my cheeks I turn the other cheek, Knowing that my bodyquake Ain't on fleek...fooled geek... Jerk, nerd, geek, turd, dumb - Those insults don't mean a thing Some terms above - smart! Friends are on a ship But, it rocks back and forward - Kicking off sandals, The waves carry them Instead of float, they sunk...ah! The shore is no more We transported stuff From wild sea to reckless sea We trade and give up Barrels of wheat grain And buckets and buckets of... Gold that never sinks Topics and subjects Changed in a blink of an I Eye still hear my ex, E-e-Echoing Through the blasted breeze of please... Look at these paw prints Tend a gorgeous garden... You're observing these details; At last, seeing truth !
