Obscure
The joker’s always grinning
He’s grinning at your pain
Negative vibes are spinning
Taking root inside your brain
A wicked sin turns violent
When it’s got nothing pure
Cold stare remaining silent
Preferring to remain obscure

Late night musing. I haven't written like this in many summers. Pete_25 is the master of this short punchy style, in my opinion. He inspired me to try this again tonight. Appreciate you.

Thanks so much for reading and your kind words, Pete. You're welcome, brother. I had to know if I still could write that way. But seriously, brother, I dig the punchy writing style you've created. Appreciate you.

I felt that one. This was pretty punchy, Damian!

It's an amazing thing how we inspire each other here. Pete is indeed a master at a short punchy style, but you're pretty damn good at it too. You nailed it imo with an epic idea and piece.
