Classical infusion Beethoven’s “ode to joy”
Playing on blaring audiophile speakers annoy 
Purposely looped to destroy vagrants with electronic music
Blends of subversive elements and anxious acoustic 
Solution to loitering the bodega doo dropping
Spicy Shiitake broth smelling...

Upon this scene of anguish, I abide no hope.
As yet,  the dreary,  silent,  silent!
For on the eve’ of my existence.

I have been waiting,
Waiting for thee that's going to help me stop thinking,
Thinking of how life is so unpleasing,

that (at best) were most unpleasing
others had thick coats of dust
that left me coughing, wheezing

A friend is someone special
One that loves you for you
Loves you for your mistakes
And picks you up
When you don't know what to do
Life is a lesson
And lessons are to be learned
A friend is a blessing
