Welcome Into My World
Welcome into the world where I live
With the strength and fault
I care to share and give
To any soul who likes the vote
You need to nick
To win in the rat race
You kick and prick
Into the frownless face
You love to hate
Cos nonsense I can’t tweet
To date
The past I quit
Long ago
To step into the future
You choose to forgo
To embrace the catcall culture
You feel fulfills dreams
You dare to entertain
Alongside streams and reams
Of the nonsense you maintain and retain to sustain
The façade
I loathe
As sentiment salad
Sanity and dignity can’t breathe
Today or tomorrow
Not in the world
Where sorrow
Curled and unfurled
Own no iota of space
To wreak havoc
Deep or on the surface
Where a cassock
No longer features
In tiny doses
With literatures
Whose poses
Can’t detonate
The complacent bottom
Of society at the gate
Wherefrom
Sanity and insanity company part
In circumstances you detest
As from me insanity and indignity depart
When the reliability and validity of life test you waste.
