Either light or dark
Pick a side and park
Scurry to and fro
Back and forth
Black and white
This duality plight
Step left step right
In blazing sunlight
Shadow attachment ratcheted laughs
Shapes form in concrete contrasts
Manifested thought forms en masse
Unnoticed they walk on having a blast
Of the herd being cattle without grass
Surreal landscape seas that seize
Hidden hands plan scam these
Self-blinded morphing mammals
All caught up in nonsense rabble
Confused bemused can’t refuse
Inner blues hues they recuse
Rhetoric on repeat constant double speak
Spouting touting railroad routing to bleak
Behind the eyes to be spied
Clearly countless self-told lies
Whisper wonder reasons why
Taught trained ignore the real “I”
Haunted hunted stunted
Human growth blunted
Unseeing their shadow forms
Constantly creating inner storms
Manifesting creepy crawly dark things
Twisting mutating mass assembling
Hear you shout for freedom then
Why you refuse to look in?
Keep the distraction flowing going
Side show entertainment on pavement
Cult rave you better behave forgoing
A questioning mind based firmament
Does it hurt to think?
Smell all that stink
You don’t even blink
Have this pinprick drink
Infiltrated numbered marked hijacked
Lost are thoughts of talking back
Look at that jaw gone slack
Vacant eyes emptied into black
Thousand mile stare
There’s no one there
Division incision with derision
Complicit in reduction
All of them their decision
Suctioned into unholy induction
Fear frazzled fractured folks
Unaware stares
Pacing pounding pokes
Regulating affairs
Still point observation
Red rusted nations
Of shadow people
Stuttering stagnation.
