The Fall (one size fits all)
we exist in a black & white world
where they burn your flag & your pride
if you stray outside the confining outlines
loose cannon jazz leads to blue looks
for swimming upstream to birth cool
in a pace which rips through rule books
black sheep are shot for grazing at night
in a fight against driftwood wearing hoods
instead of uniform peaks, woven in lilywhite
snowflakes aim to form a synchronized shape
& euthanize, medicate & lobotomize
Houdini’s who break or partake in a chain escape
led by lego brick leaders
stacked thick in piles of dimes a dozen
fed stacks to build a kingdom for the one
throw your TV’s through the window of possibilities
& step outside the jars of clay
spinning in the hands of potters plotting a payday by foul-play
follow brave men down the road not taken
where the grass is greener & the air is cleaner
for the paved path ends at a kool-aid drinking fountain
