Felicity is simplicity
Indecency desolates
Tranquility
Happiness is seen habitually
Dissolving the hiatus of cheerful faces
In a glistening oasis
A drenched remedy
Although society begs to differ
Exiling the people who drown there sorrow in liquor
Questions purge out of bottle
Answered behind the wheel
This equation hushes the minds inside the penitentiary system-
Everything is quiet as the guards
Try to depict
This gibberish is sent to be spoken in prison
Behind bars where words echo supersonic
The wounds are chronic
The surges of pain blended with untranslatable words leave the drunken macaronic
While adolescence lacks parental guidance and bondage
Sooner or later these tweens
Spend currency illegally
To drown out problems
That arose from the father’s intoxicated violence
A road to disaster and the plane takes off on the blacktop and the child is the pilot
The airplane pivots
And spirals into bottle of jack
The father that
Acts ends up staring at concrete
Unable to envision his kin’s collapse
