Conversation with my Conscience
Tell me your thoughts
on the world today…
Why each minute in civilization
forces you further astray?
“Speak of glass houses-
that no longer exist?
How men cast stones-
led by iron fist?”
It can’t be so bad, friend-
(just push and shove)
What about this freedom-
we brag so freely of?
“A money populated society-
deems no one free…
Corruption runs it’s course,
not sensitivity…”
Retention of progress-
belated concert?
Higher communication-
exactly what can this hurt?
“Blatant bitterness,
(you must think of me)
Retention brings hatred,
drown about by degree…
Where’s the retention-
of song and innocence?
The love of simplicity-
not the building of fence…”
Suppress the foundation-
terror in defiance,
Won’t there always remain-
cacophony in silence?
“Be that as it may
I shall not overstay”
“This world becomes less-
than my ideal design,
I believe it’s just safer-
to reside in my mind…”
