Nonsensical Denial

Nonsensical Denial

Speaking this language to strangers
This is most absurd, this poetry.

Perhaps they can convince you
*The television wrote it
*A school of fish
*The magic of alphabet soup
*We got it out of a book
Who cares where the poetry came from?

It's a multiple choice question
They did not request for you to ask.
Where did poetry come from?

Modern gossip is able to do
Propaganda in twisted ways
Perhaps you have me confused
With someone else today

I'm out playing with the identity theives
Out trying to get them to pay the rent.
So please don't remember me
For writing all this poetry.

I don't know you
You don't care
Just get the latest
Media Spin

Money talks
Money chats
Money gabs
Go do another poetry reading gig.

It's a twisted tale of many lies!
Let's be vague with the truth -
Nobody wants the plain reality.
