Riddle me this

I eat of this crop everyday. 
It's a blur of colours 
in quatrain display. 
Though this guy's out of work 
as there's no jobs anymore,
but not yet redundant 
yet creative I'm sure.

See son…two different kind but from the same source.
Crystal now gone. Wasn’t here much anyway.
Still, what appears…feels & looks to me like rust
Now, that would be a bust. Could be.
But I would guess that most is just copper flake
Maybe pennies in my thoughts. Sitting here waiting to sprout green.
But yeah, Ms. Green…I felt her coming
Especially when I was sure that Crystal was gone
And I can warm up to her real easy.
Just like last time.

ok well guessing this stuff isn't as easy as i thought  it might be.

I'm thinking nuclear fallout or Smoke for Rachel

I was thinking along the 'sunlight' area for Lemme
sunlight being one of the main reasons for moving furniture around.

Miss sub I think I have the first half but am stumped for now on the second half

Kriticool, I was thinking maybe weed

Guess this could be kinda challenging And I can see where one might think "weed"   But nah man, it ain't cannabis. hahaha

Cryptic stuff in here... Codes to decipher...
Where to begin? I'll start at the beginning.

Rachel - hate
Goodest - heart(Mr A beat me to it)
Lemmy - depression
Missub - a poet/poem an artist/paint ???....?!
Kriti - diamond/graphite pearls?? I'm out of sorts with yours...

(Nice competition Eemon.)

I was thinking something along the lines of OCD or something of that sort.

aww man... Meth.. Crystal.. BOTH are nouns.  But nah. Matter of fact, I thought my drop would be the easiest.  Maybe I'll wait for some peeps to sober up a bit.

It's not a mirror is it? Photo frame? Camera lens? Something like that?

building; no one can hold it

exploding; tears all inside us

growling; we know its presence

escaping; to make everyone scatter

ensuring; the airs hard to breathe

spreading; all around quick and freely

controlling; the life of all who let it


My guess: Flatus(Could not use the synonym)

(Pardon me if I am wrong.)
