What skeletal wreck of man this is
Transluscent flesh and feeble bones
The kinda temple where whores and villians try to temp the holistic tones
Running ramped with free thought to free form to the free and clear
And the matters at hand shelled out like lint at a laundry mat to shift and focus on the bigger and better now
We all have a little sin that needs venting,virtues for the rending of laws and systems and stems of rift and the branches of office do you know what your post intels
Do you serve a purpose or purposely serve
Wind down inside your lore
The value of a summer spent and a winter earned
For the rest of us there is always sunday
The day of the week the reeks of rest but all we do is catch our breath so we can wade naked in the bloody pool and place our hand on the big black book
Wind down inside your lore
The value of a summer spent and a winter earned
For the rest of us there is always sunday
The day of the week the reeks of rest but all we do is catch our breath so we can wade naked in the bloody pool and place our hand on the big black book
To watch the knife zigzag between our aching fingers
A vaction is a countdown t-minus your life and counting time to drag you tongue against the sugar cube and hope you get a taste
Rember your a wreck an accident
Forget the freak your just nature
Keep the gun oiled and the temple clean
**** ,snort and blasphomey
Let the heads cool and the engines run
Because in the end everything we do is just everything we've done

umm.. not sure what to say... WoW, a powerful write!

Welcome to the Blue Pages, I hope you have a good time here and sit back, relax and take your shoes off! (unless your socks are too smelly)

Always, Alyssa

I admire your wordplay, but I wasn't always sure what you were getting at. My favorite lines were the ones that went:

"The day of the week the reeks of rest but all we do is catch our breath so we can wade naked in the bloody pool and place our hand on the big black book
Wind down inside your lore"

lestat,
very dark but powerful images. However punctuation would help understanding. Loved the refrain!

"Do you serve a purpose or purposely serve"
"Because in the end everything we do is just everything we've done"

I liked these two lines very well, jump right to the point and immediately understandable to
'old folks' like me. The man is a wreck indeed. Very dark and forceful. You probably quite enjoyed "ranting" away on this one. Interesting read. Thank you.
