"Contrary to the popular bumper-sticker, it's not enough to question authority; You have to speak with it too." -Taylor Mali


I just wanted to be given something to write about
Something to recite about
Something to open my mouth and not fight about
To be given a chance to take my route
That no one had explored before
A rhythm no one rhymed anymore.
That song within,
That the world had forgot the lyrics to
The tunes never reciprocated, never has the chance to do.
Ears that had no fears of the melodies
People not afraid to feel the pain of felony.
The beautiful acceptance of failure
The love of a stranger
The kindness of a true lover
Obligations of the human realization
Perfection
Perspective
Is most eclectic
Promising the most electric
Like the energy when my body met it.
The heart attack of corruption
That seems to function through every vein in society
And it's really such a pity
That the cynical stuff we find witty
Hurts, it’s like the morphine addiction
That we think it's fine, but it's hypocrition
Don't judge till you've been there is nearly an impossible affliction
But maybe we can resurrect of the love locked in the transfixion
That it's impossible for us. Impossible to lock, the key is inexistent.
