The world turns backwards like a hurricane.
Where religion affects politics,
the malevolent takes precedent over those who are relevant,
ignorant like a baby Helen Keller to all the world’s problems.
Rubik’s cube solution to a 1 + 1 problem,
Wanderers lost from a straight line that provides them sanction.
Invisible proofs are ideals by the masses’ beliefs.
Angry yells because lies hold no truth,
stuck in a 2 x 4 phone booth,
phone lines are cut loose,
no sweet talks to consume weak hearts,
so no one believes you when you run away,
and that’s why you breath hard.
Those panicking breaths are consumed by chemicals that influence the brain,
disillusioned choice run in and outside the body
from needle point holes in your arm
to hallucinogens giving you pictures of Barney.
What happened to childhood dreams?
Now it’s minimum-wage manual labor.
Still stuck in that phone booth with metal bars,
and the state gave you a quarter,
but the phone lines are cut loose
and the repairmen aren’t going to come.
Yet still, instead of doing what needs to be done,
we decide to get deceived by what seems to be.
