insanity, usa (killeen,tx)

uncontrolled spasms of emotions and thought
twisted together
blended
added with a shot of anger
a pinch of depression
and a squirt of confusion
stir with a straw
pouring in heartache mixed with love
drink it's bittersweet nectar
smile through the tears it brings
the pain and the sorrow
the stars and the moon
a brew of things both good and bad
iced and bottled for public consumption
tainted and painted in a different style
like picaso and rapheal
leonardo and rockwell
each one is different on the tongue
taste and flavor vary like the wind
changed by both distance and time
made aware of the difference
between reality and fiction
and the drama that dwells in both
the agony and the pleasure
fear and pride
collected for the masses as an opiate
a placebo to sterilize the creativity of the mind
and the power of the heart
so medicate the mind and the the heart you despise
comatose those you can't idolize
shower them with curses and bless them with poison
as you create someone into something they aren't
make them fit into a mold you like
with uncontrolled spasms of emotions and thought

if it bleeds seven days and doesn't die, then it's something you should be happy to get.

excellent work my friend.  I like it.
