Discerning Distortion of Personified WorldsNo apologies
No criticism
Significant abhorrence
Distorted transfiguration
Angsty mornings
Disheavled evenings
Annoyance , frustration , disdain .
Paradoxial inception
Analytical depression
Muffled whispers
Defunct agression
Ultimate paranoia
Unconsciously decisive
Submissive arguments
Disoriented contortion
Twirling whirlwind of suppression
Tumult of words
In finalè
Pure satured composure guided by
motives of predestined animosity...

Image Distortionmother sees child's pretty smile
and posts it for the world to see,
she's thinking fondly all the while
how much that she now looks like me
daughter sees the picture posts
and all she sees are mother's arms,
her face turns pallid as a ghost
and quickly loses all its...

Deceiving DistortionThis distortion I reek of
Is seeping
Its not under control
Im forced into believing this bed is too big for the small room
That the walls of this small room is a way of containing the things I hold
Maybe if my hands weren’t heavy with the...

Paroxysmal DistortionYou’re prearranged with all those thoughts of dread, rearranged for a propaganda fret.
You are the few, you are the same, and you have been bought.
By all who knew just what to say and do, holding change like it’s an enlighten noose.
Monkeys it’s...

Heroic DistortionI thought he was glorious
and would renew my world
I thought he could be the one
to end the tyranny
I thought he was sincere
in his intent
I thought he was Robin Hood,
that’s what he told me
I thought he spoke only the truth
-‘his words transcend the 10’
I learned...

Distortion of GoodThe economy keeps plummeting
and everyone wants to make
a statement, some people get
attention by pounding the
pavement, others rebel,
creating different versions
of hell, distorting the good
that could serve all Americans
well,
Occupying Wall Street has gotten
out of control, what seemed like
positive revolting, has given way
to violent souls,
Change will...

French Distortion Times ThreeCool, sweet distortion is what I crave.
The sweet French variety,
fat olives in abundance,
always serve best.
Problems
of the
long,
hot
day
seem
to just melt away
after just one of these magic potions.
“Shaken, not stirred,” was Bond’s steady reply.
What an ingenious answer to
the action and intrigue.
Even the slope
of the
cool,
slim,
clear
glass
reminds me of a topless,...

DistortionThey kill for their namesake
Blinded with visions of righteousness
Mirrored with images of self
Sanctifying, with daggers plunging deep
Crowds gather in loyalty
Massed in fear, assembled in hatred
Adherence to dogmas of a farsighted kind
While master deceivers bloom like orchids...

One of a KindWhy be concerned with transparency
People are blind, they really can’t see
With distortion and illusion in the word today
And bias and lies in what people say
Just be who you are, one of a kind
The truth will totally blow their mind
They’ll be so confused trying to figure...

The Flaw Is Their Seeing, Not Your BeingWhy be concerned with transparency
People are blind, they really can’t see
With distortion and illusion in the word today
And bias and lies in what people say
Just be who you are, one of a kind
The truth will totally blow their mind
They’ll be so confused trying to figure...

Today Is Just Another DayLet go - and fly
Every morning Rising Like Displaced ether
Merging into the miracle of life
Such grandeur I cannot guess
Why We are blessed this way
To wake not once,, But twice.
First with life Then, with a truth that hearts
would perish for. Oh!...

The MetalThud
This thing born of breath and bone,
Seated on its secret throne,
A harbinger of ignition,
Pulling us from our perdition.
Thud
By the dream and the waking,
Anger ripe for the taking;
It reaps the spite from our minds.
By moon and star, flesh it grinds.
Thud
Distortion: its holy blade.
Singing songs of pain...
