And their eulogies sang me to sleep

All I heard was the sound of fish who'd drowned.
All I saw was the inside of my eyelids.
All I said fell short of reaching open ears.
Words floating, clouding the view...
'See no, hear no, speak no evil' leaves you deaf,
dumb and blind, because the bad is all you'll find.
A deeply heart-felt goodbye to the part of me that died when
I decided to put others before me, yes, my heart fell asleep
boredom and fatigue.
I always said I wanted to die smiling,
To pretend I'm at peace.

Now from my corpse beams a frigid,
blank grin and once hopeful eyes are sunken in.
Like a lullaby to the cradle is the eulogy to the casket.
All my flaws swept under the table to grieve
the porcelain doll that was me.
Their solemn songs sang me to sleep as my body escaped me.
Welcome down into the New World!
Happiness is being interred!
Such a shameful masquerade!
Fleeting, frozen minutes on display.
Why is evolution such a shameful thing to say?
Can you fee! your bodily decay?
Arms are beside me, hands open wide.
Seems I was living mv life in rewind,
taking so manv steps backwards, not looking behind.
Because I can sure as hell feel my brain going blank.
If my body betrays me, there's pollution to thank.
This condition infects my cells like it controls my mind.
Internal army, defend me
behind enemy lines!
Fragile vehicle of mine!
Don't abandon me yet!
There is so much to live
for that we so easily forget.
Fascination with the fear... The concept escapes me.
All encompassing fate... how it wrenches our hearts,
torments our souls and sings us all to sleep
to an eternal keep, no matter what beliefs,
it sweetly sings us all...

Business suits and combat boots (The Agonist)

Does history guide you, or do you set out to change it?
Breach not broken

Fuck your...
Skinned- alive designer wear
Fashion shades and salon hair
Heels to help where nature failed
Artificial teeth and nails

The wasp's nest expands

So clap your hands! It's her!
The one black woman who's success you don't credit to Affirmative Action
The way of the future is corporate sponsors raising your kids
Maternal love is nothing compared to what $7 gives
Put in, suck out plastic body parts
It's the ever-growing industry of cosmetic arts!
Bombarded with the idealized shots, dysmorphic, self-destructive plots

Physical flaws are a mental blank

So pay your surgeons
It’s your parents you should thank


These eyes are blind to several hundred left behind
(Lest we forget again)
But the border is breached but not broken
Who tries to find the several hundred left behind,
When the border is breached but not broken?

Go-existing in a twisted society
Where youth is a crime and wasteful sweat-shops expenditures are how luxury is defined
Now the KKK has found a new masquerade
Fuck your self-proclaimed supremacy
You hide your face and your shame!

Identify right and wrong when all fact is merely opinion
You cannot know the sweetness of victory without first dwelling in the agony of defeat

These eyes are blind to several hundred left behind
(Lest we forget again)
But the border is breached but not broken
Who tries to find the several hundred left behind,
When the border is breached but not broken?
