No parlez vous
No comprende
It's just a barrage a
Faux barricade
We talk at each other
And each of us carry
A "crazy" around
Ready to shoot verbiage
Gunning each other down...
Humankind-
So very unkind
Hiding behind magnanimous shields
Fulminating magnificent orgy of words
That stand up for ideas
Motions of emotions
Strikingly elegant
poseurs langorous
With effete langue
Malovolent malicious
Tittering tongues..
A babel.
A baby's drivel.
A babble of sheeple
A rabid rabble...
Hiding behind magnificent views
And mincing opinions like
Strong diced onions
Shedding tears of copious abundance
Meaning long forgotten.
Do we even listen to each
other?
When our own words are
mnemonic devices trigerring subliminal comfort zones
The proverbial music to our
Expectant ears?
The herd heard not.
They weren't really hard of hearing.
But
Hard hearted and soft in the head.
Humanity in need
Of humanitarian aid.
(Let them eat cake
If they don't have bread.)
