Anguish In the Rain

Anguish in the Rain

A dream coming towards true manifestation
A scream from the north of my past life commiserations
My spleen venting forth through my expressive incantations
A green man distorts the inter-planetary visitations 

Capitalist nightmares and human rights violations 
Contortionist cartoonists and contrite salutations
An eccentric hot air balloonist with too many invitations
An inventive scientist marooned on the edges of an opium plantation

Vaccinations that cure, protect, paralyse and maim 
How can this be a world where it’s possible to stay sane ?
Who at the very core and top will stand up and take the blame?
When it comes time to admit it and call out their names 

Proof of the burdened a heavy load to carry 
Sleuth of the words and the age you see fit to marry 
Truth that’s absurd that encourages one to not tarry
A prince that’s disturbed- let’s not mention Harry

Fortune requiring a kingdom of heaven waiting 
More tunes acquiring the excitement of children anticipating 
White full moons desiring into astronomy participating 
A bride at high noon retiring before the groom starts celebrating 

ThetMongolian Empire conquering all that you know 
A sure remand of prisoners waiting on death row 
A crude demand on limitations of perspectives of the masses 
A blatant reprimand on an adolescent out of place like a fascist 

Retribution for a heinous crime 
Institutions of grief and melancholy and time 
Constitutions of relief and the universal mind 
Elocutions of belief that express the divine 

An utterance of regret as the pain becomes unbearable 
A stutter I’d forget if my jacket was wearable 
The nuclear aftermath of life in Chernobyl 
The sum of the whole of the parts all in total
