A am a molecule of existence
Tasked only with my stupid persistence

Sadly I have been tricked into caring
For both my neighbors & other people
This is a stupidity unsparing
(Philosophy & faith thus me wheedle)

The ornamentation of our folly
Upon newspapers, calendars & streets
Evéry soul must somehow up-tally
(Ignoring foolishness the soul depletes)

Occasionally there is perfection
It visits the humanity that looks
The one precondition is inspection
It is rarely ever observed in books

There is a ferocious future waiting
For the conscious & the unaware
A Godly chef is now our dish plating
(Will we feast on something besides despair?)

People are perfectly supported
By this most troubling society
Our necessities have been deported
From the world’s poor in mock piety

We have another tabula raza
To make Paradise or Gaza

Evéry Day is another zombie
Blindly marching forward seeking something
That remains somehow unknowably free
(We are all caught in fate’s crazy webbing)

Each of us is imprisoned mercif’lly
In existence’s penitentiary
In the most abundant luxury
(Thus it has been in ev’ry century)

The world is constantly evolving
It’s changing & possibly improving
Certainly Mother Earth is revolving
& most of humanity keeps aging

The sun rises just ǝʞıן it always does
& I scramble to the window to see
Today with me is a bus of convicts
Driving to go face their judgement sadly
