Symptoms

Whatever happens when days counted as weeks? And years counted as astrological countdowns What ever happened to disco rap battling drums? On streets filled graffiti and sand castles Whatever happens to shoes with no laces? And bras with no straps Backpack ladybugs with taps Bell bottoms Montreal Sweden Russia Columbia streets Backward aimed down guns strictly meant for Cisco band operative thieves Whatever happens to justice stringing down a cubical wall? Hanged down gavels London has fall Lint brushed suits and gated Citadels Bells ring time church broken pulpits spill What ever happened to make up brushing Mack trucks? Highway in France Long stroking discipline Chinese to Japan Whatever happened to words screaming off a page? Sandy still beat breathing cells covered backward again What happened to life metaphoric acronym? Made fun of stage left to mend Jokes to tell anchors to sail What happened to the decrease in operating jail to sale? What happened man made fictional crap Backsliding genocide and presidents’ mysteriously vanish What happened is told with a story that has no end? Stopped up water turned brown cased in a sprite river bend What happened what happened if the time was not set? It will be broken and told to lie up a case with no Chef No knife no swords The word would not be told What happen to happen? Happen has caught a cold!

Some say that eveything happens in cycles, I say that experiences cause us to fall back to be able to advance. Much strength in your pen.
