Unwanted: Dead or Alive (Part1)

 
Lost for identity forfeit to alias
When pleasures are self induced traumas
Implicated by a digital fingerprint
Placed at the site of the cyber crime
Stained by the residue of a memory
Wearing paths in the neurological landscape
The wanderlust of turbulent terrain

On the fast track to a mental hell
I just want to derail
Sniff out the body count to follow the trail
I speak to cope with suffering
Making art of the bleeding
Like a mosaic in the massacre of the ways that I fail
When I am a blind man that fakes like I’m seeing

Laying claims to redemption in professions of a dying faith
While I make a case for the accuser
I confess in my will to take hold of grace
But the lack of change finds me an abuser

Face to face, what is the mask and what is true
The devil of my flesh or my hope found in You?

Natural incompetence versus artificial intelligence
Transmitting a technological heart disease
It’s the same sin in a new shell
Empty promises to fulfill
Viruses of the viral, our fantasies appease
Insatiable appetites are bottomless but never please

Indulgences lure to rabbit holes of a sick and twisted wonderland

I speak a never ending riddle
My heart is abstract in plain sight
I wear my confessions in an adornment of words
Finding better ways to quote the narratives
I speak to echo the soul of a collective void
Resonating with anyone that can relate
Every letter written is bid upon by the silent auctions of understanding
Rich in passion yet bankrupt for returns…
