In a welding process from within the mind
You merge the words together
In the strength of their meaning
And in this adhesion the structure solidifies

In the garden within a mental layout is made
A placement of special fragrances of thought
In the mixing of colors that plants vivid images
In arrangement of a spectacular presentation

Now the two verses must merge in the mind of the reader
Taking it to the next level of enlightenment
Into the heavens of free flight
To interpret the intensity of the meditation

If the images keep blossoming over time
A masterpiece of reflection is born
If the explosive image is felt and devoured
But wilts in time of rusty reflections
Then it is just an advertisement of a temporary value

Worst of all if the adhesion is like a political nightmare
Running for reelection
Then the patchwork of hot air
Only lasts if words are inflated enough
By voters who do not care

Like selling stock in your self
The price of success lies in confidence
And with the price of today’s stock market
Corporate America has lost the words
In rusted assets on inflated words of deceit

So please do not ask me to come up with the words
To justify any ex-corporate officer running for president
Who bilked the confidence of investors
By defrauding them of their inheritance

Let me go back into my mind
To create a fantasy
That tells the truth
And is not afraid of it
Believing in an American rebirth
Of respect in the words said so right
They do not need to be re-welded

a nice little rant...I loved the first few verses and especially this

Let me go back into my mind
To create a fantasy
That tells the truth
And is not afraid of it
