Words…
  the great currency
  inside my literary account

Inspiration,
  the letters of credit
   —freeing me to spend

Anal is really something I'm not
My laissez-faire attitude bothers some peeps a lot
It's just how I roll
I'm still in control
But overly zealous, I certainly am not...

Give me a break! Shall you?
You say that you are free in free society
While your liberty is stolen!
By that freedom, so, let it be
Let them do as they will
Let them enjoy their marginal utility
Or leave it alone....

your not welcome as a fool
leave it to laissez faire
You not guilty playing up
culpable in other words
we all rejoin someday
A surrender in other words
Try and be cool
think it over
before you leave
after you understand

Economics is a matter of interest
in the market of stagnation
lets forward laissez faire
we are not gullible

Man steps on live railway track
watch his leather hoof
wild horses conveyed
anatomically decompartized

Amsterdam vibrant with
Bells of red trams and blue bikes
Canals sparkling night lights 
Delft facades rising tall and slim in misty air
Energy of never sleeping coffeeshops of laissez-faire life

Stupidity's result  reigns, on Englands trains, flooding in London
With disruption most dire' yet Ashford is sidlined Ebbsfleet
Was retired??
Thus must cause some Ire? Ignoring much infrastructure designed
For the best, in tourisam in buisness its not a big guess?
Laissez-faire, and we will find things likely will thrive, human
Scale; human values in each land must preside!...

Lavish lilac layers link lofty laurel lunar lanterns
 laissez-faire luxurious largesse lifts labouring lumberjack 
loop-de-loop  lilting Limerick levity lessens life’s load
laughter laden-lampoon, a little lacerating labyrinthine lip 
limelight lustrous leonine lithe lady launches lavender lace
lucid lissome leisurely land loper locket livid loom
Lopsided lounge lizard’s love-lies-bleeding loose leaf...

I am planning to come this way again, I swear
Circumstances of my future stay yet unknown,
My status, caste, or the native clothes I’ll wear
I am planning to come this way again, I swear
Maybe next time with a less disarming flair,
A concerted effort to be more laissez faire
Less the activist, perhaps, more like a drone,
I am planning to come this way again, I swear
Circumstances of my future stay yet unknown.

The smile conceals, something.
Does not offer any cue.
You were still traveling 
within.

You wanted to leave the world, 
as it was, without cleaving
the wood, not accepting the veneer.
It rang an alarm bell.

To evolve their own persona;
good to take their own path.
The fallout was widening.This
was an insider’s story.

What an audacious withdrawl;
and you were in a silent mode like a Buddha 
to uptake the film of dust
settling on the innocent rape of book.
