Representation of our lives as seen from space

I am what I see    
I see what I am      
there's a funny conception      
of the wolf and lamb.      
A spearheaded soldier      
with nothing to loose      
I dust off my jacket      
and put on my shoes.      
I sell myself drugs      
to have something to live for      
this place is a wasteland      
like the sewers of Mordor.      
I give myself time      
but always enough      
I read myself sweaty      
but it gets too much.      
It fills up my lungs      
and it channels my blood      
I always thought of it as      
descendence from mud.      
Regarding the latter      
and the former to come      
I have nothing to hope for      
but vengeance is some.      
My mother was reckless      
and my father's a pope      
I'm a troubled messiah      
who gladly ties his own rope.      
I write my own language      
with cock-feathered pens      
but It's not like I chose to      
be a breeder of hens.      
I live my own daydream with a      
sickly time line      
It coughes and it vomits      
and collects all the fines.      
I regard my own shadow      
as the sins of my past      
a piss-stinking place where      
the never casts.      
This stuff is all nonsense      
and for that I refrain      
but since all this is over      
tell me what is my name?

Thought I’d give myself complete creative freedom and write what came to mind. This was it. It’s more than nothing... it’s... something.
