Its that feeling inside
This twist almost a cry for help
On the outside of the world
Hoppless dread of falling in
And being part of what doesnt exist
Everyone claims to be happy and free
But lies and broken standards
Run ramport and truly free

This feeling that you could
And can but a gravity propelled self-esteem
Holds your truth and misery inside
Self projected and self inflicted
Desire and distraction
A metamorphic game indeed

Where would you stand if you could stand at all
Tall proud alone weak frail trapped
And a joke
Laughter at and from
Shame

A steady downward trip
A spiral
Hypnotised
Parallized

Constant
It doesn't stop
The bottom well within view

Almost had a means for change
A motive

Then nothing would change except the horizon

_____Flat____and ______still_________constant_______

a trickle of music from a well
let it spill and roar like hell!

"in a past life i was a woodcarver's knife: the sharpend blade of a wood cutter, the eldest son of the chief's brother: a maker of drums"

Thanx.  I guess this is my cynical side coming out.  But sometimes this is exactly how things feel.
