Somewhere in the back of my mind this glows
Not a visible light
And nothing scary either

A bubbly cloud of hope, loss, and apathy
Observe first glance contradictions
Actually just layers of collapse

Directions bleak and blank without comprehension
Another addition to our rate of poverty
Feel it all coming to, maybe just hope

Then what am I doing
Waiting and waiting...
Waiting for what was said as mine

This seems to just run together
With the simplicity of saying sorry,
Then stepping back under what is actually
On the surface evil called an idol
Worshipped in confusion

Why can't it just come to
Instead of dragging on with no end
The dark of a tunnel somewhere is my half-way shelter

Drip
Drop
Flat black

A trickle of music from a well,
Let it spill and rip through Hell.

Your "Humorous Freak" is an ode to Purity... I was glad to see someone put the way I felt today in eloquent, perfect form.
This is one of your best writes from all perspectives, Green. Form, wording, analogies, yeah, it's metaphorically cool!

UR Not alone.

Wings bruised from turning away in such confined space...Not broken...still healable...still feathered with life, somewhere

Yeah I guess it has a positve effect to know that I'm not alone.  It all still kinda sucks though.  lol.  Thanks purity.
