Collision Course

You are on a collision course with disaster but instead of hitting the brakes you’re going faster
You’ve set traps on a road only you walk afraid someone will follow you home
greed smeared all over your face it’s a disgrace how you eat selfishness and suck on the bone
you ignore the blood that runs through the streets, remove your shoes just so it doesn’t stain the carpet but you can't get that smell off your sheets
that
odor of fear
the
stain of sorrow you tried to dilute with beer
you
sweat at night afraid to sleep worried that the wolf might come for his sheep

Alone; your only friend is your shadow. ..

but who will you turn to at night?

in your darkest hour, in the absence of light
where
no hope prevails
and every attempt for rescue you try fails
who will you turn to then?
when you
gag from the scent of the wastes of men who will you turn to then when the skies fall and the stars come crashing down and the earth beneath you gets loose?
Who will you turn to when all hell breaks loose?
When
the blood starts to fill up the potholes and cracks
this isn't opinion it's statistics and facts
it's not a revolution of cracked up scientists babbling about pollution, it's an attempt for a solution, if we don't fix it we die!! What’s the confusion?,
do you
think this is an illusion?

you don't care If everybody loses as long as you’re winning
but you
wont be grinning when the world stops spinning
I
speak the truth so you think I’m mean and
your
too comfortable in your ignorance to understand the meaning
of the end

living day by day looking for the next pot to pee in
stop trying to forget the shit that we in
you can't gut this and put the weed in
your
too busy carrying your doomed ambitions so you can’t give a helping hand
if the world is doomed then why fight for oil and land cheezin sitting on your first class flight to success but
what. You. don’t. know.
is that your plane is UNMANNED

A powerful piece of prose. In light of everything taking place in the world today within and around us, yes, I have to believe your prose examines.

Good ish.
