Everything is starting to make sense

Wait...I'm afraid it's not

I've turned a skin thing

Through the gates of ill-repute

Voices louder and louder, then go mute



I've found (out) you're not (who)

You claim to be!!!

Please echo the crowd's displeasure

Conduct the finite symphony towards a different measure



Get this lost thing away

We can't have it ruining our Last Days

I said "Leave them to fend for themselves"

She'd have known their future if only she could really tell



An Oracle or a false prophet

You held the truth, then you dropped it



I've been (opened) in my (mind)

I've found out the liar's symphony

Is needling through, producing unpleasant dreams

I've found (out) you're not (who)

You claim...none of us are who we claim to be

Hi,

'none of us are who we claim to be'

Much to ponder there.

A fine write.

Tommy

You know, I agree with Spud, though
personally, I'm trying to be more of an
open book. This was a really clever and
intelligent write that completely drew me
in. I hope that you found some solace in
giving vent to the darkness, because it
was really wonderful.

Be well,
~Loende
