To Beef Or Not To Beef

I’m a free spirit rising 
a freethinker dreaming 
Stoically climbing 
the surreal limbo bar,
But I don’t know why 
i’m no bright spark 
for split seconds on fire
lighting up the dark 

Yet we have one 
with burning aspirations 
peers into his own sky 
it goes over most heads
Just like mother earth 
oh that monster 
who never shared a bed 

Unresurrected yet alive 
drones from a hive 
uniformity in his wardrobe 
reminds me of 
a Gucci slave
in fox fur skin
self imposed virgin 

His yellow ribbon tie,
symbolic of no hope 
tourniquet for the throat 
leers around corners
peers over the edge 
paranoid with multifaceted sides
seen through opaque eyes 
equals the root of Pi r squared
be careful not to stare 

Does his hell refuse lepers
can I comment 
without being masked
stop me spreading gossip 
through questions I ask,
Searching for answers 
or setting traps 
they come thick and fast 
But like always 
with many gaps

Cast out of Eden
for the beef he’s eaten 
an iPhone heathen 
Doesn’t know when beaten 
perhaps tofu can sweeten 
the Shakespearian cretin
