listen to the false truths for each have their own style

changing words dragging lies into the vocabulary

of ones stellar demands, each of us have a need

to be seen, heard and respected but what is

respect but a twisted desire to undermine your

neighbors revelation with a false witness for

human nature is a basic understanding of another's

perspective created by a response to those left out

by those crushing anyone trying to open eyes

with feelings by showing others a means of escaping

for our lives are symptomatic, we follow the daily 

ritual of tired bodies and tired brains for another day

arrives with rain, traffic and storms and all we can

do is retreat away from the greed and give to

others a safe place to be without having to sleep

on the sidewalks in big cities as one tries to find

their own means of escape by searching for paradise lost
