I want someone to call me on my societal lies
But instead they all look their other ways
All of them playing the silly game “avert the eyes”
It gets so old I wish for an intrepid phase

I wonder on some occasions that sometimes come
If we’re all just living in a vast white lied discreetly    
Not saying things is becoming incoherently won
Faking realities everyone knows exist simultaneously

Aren’t we fake; we’re so unreal, asking for it every day
A forged reality of glassy stares and robot answers
We have become a machine oppression of a similitude way
Coming up with psychotically reoccurring cures

I realize that there is no knight to rescue me from phony town
Wide smiles plastered on veiled faces, but eyes speak true
They all want a paper cut reality- living in on unstable ground
While all I can do is sit back and watch the bold- the few


Love is never foolish- and if it is, it is a Divine Foolishness.

-Sir Gawain

Wow I really liked this one, but this stanza has got to be my favorite. How true, how very true....
