When all you could think of yourself
............is a mockery to those who are;
when your essence
............has settled to the bottom
..................................of a dusty, cracked jar;
....................pushed to the back
..................................of a crowded top shelf,
....................waiting for the final clumsy shove...
....................to fall
..............................into an invisible shatter behind
................................................the brittle brown wall
.................................of high struts and low stands
...................................................thrown up
...............................................by juvenile architects
..................................................sketching grown up:
Then is the time to take note,
..........to change 'were' things around,
..........to upset the balance of rote,
..........to turn 'are' upside down.
Civil disobedience plays well from civility's view,
.........but personal anarchy reigns best when it's them or you.
When you can't find the peace of your mind
............to make it through the never beginning end:
then is the time to recapture the moment,
............to jerk free, reversing the end of torment,
............to seize the dowsing rod of fortune,
............to fork it up the asses in ruin:
................who would point you in the direction
................of their arid desert for a drink of destiny
....................amid their grinding, gritty self-aggrandizement
....................blowing blindly across the dunes of their hypocrisy
....................in empty, bloated tunes of their equality and equity.
