Head Case
Woven into my skull the lies you preach
Constructing talking points out of thin air
Attention whore so in need of validation
Seeing nothing behind your vacant stare
Unquenchable is this thirst for ignorance
Which is displayed every time you speak
Peddling empty promises to the masses
Overcompensating to not appear so weak
I’m so tired of constantly seeing your face
And dealing with a simple minded head case
Constructing talking points out of thin air
Attention whore so in need of validation
Seeing nothing behind your vacant stare
Unquenchable is this thirst for ignorance
Which is displayed every time you speak
Peddling empty promises to the masses
Overcompensating to not appear so weak
I’m so tired of constantly seeing your face
And dealing with a simple minded head case

Late night musing. I'm so tired of listening to some, Snake-oil Salesman spreading fear and lies.

Your musings are quite profound. Your write and author's remind me of a quote by Ghandi: "The day the power of love overrules the love of power, the world will know peace." Amazing piece of ink, DL.

An abounding elucidation of the puppet mastery behind the scenes. It's becoming more and more common for people to see corruption. I like how neat and tidy you kept this. It was a clean write. You balance your vocabulary quite well, especially in transition from rhyme to rhyme, and the reasons in between. Good, balanced shift in direction, and solid in building up to the ending. Anyway, good job.
