Abandon Ship

Poetry Soup 
Is like a ship
floating along without it's crew.
AI pirates 
are now steering the vessel 
but I'm not enjoying the view.

There was a time they grew thick and fair.
I thought them friends.  They'd always be there.
What made them loosen up their grip
and say, at once, "Abandon ship"? - 
my long lost, faithless, hair.

I can’t abandon ship because 
The watchers of the show
Won’t let me in - their gates are closed
So there’s no way to go
Among the horde of savages 
I’m of no face and name
Appointed to cause damages
To fit the guessing game
How soon I’ll sink in agony 
They’d raise their glasses high
To cheer me up, before I flee
Out of their world to mine.

Thieving Fear

Fear ~ Who do you think you are?
And what gives you the right
To infiltrate my senses and trigger me to flight?
From the depths of my mind, you creep with expert stealth,
Like a thief in the night, you rob me of my health.
And while you have the key, you steal away my sanity
I'm held so tightly, in your grip, that I lose myself and abandon ship.

Abandon Ship!

Abandon ship! Were going down!
down to Davy Jones' part of town.
captain and crew both their fate to be,
for they all comprise one entity.
flooding complete,
no space to stand,
sink or swim,
come on and take my hand.
a guide to where you need to go,
lost between sane and the shadows.
is it I to blame for what has happened,
or was it a plan, 
take my mind and take my passion.

Hip

I use to be too hip through I was the captain of the ship, well equipped.

Until I had one too many toots, one too many nips, I tripped then flipped the script I had to abandon ship.

Now ain't that a blip, when you start taking toots and taking nips once the get a grip, it becomes a dictator ship and all you get is gypped.

So take a tip, when you're trying to be too hip, you'll just wind up a drip with your face in the dip.
