Mass Cur Aid<\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/font><\/strong><\/p>\n

Beneath darkening skies where pure truth belies
\nthe choices of voices inside of the cries,
\nthe agonies of raw uncertainty’s muse
\nstruggle to find the right language to use.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Dapper the joker made dark silhouette
\nprojected by hollowness no one could vett.
\nSo how could he understand who he should be
\nwhen looming catastrophe’s source was just…he?<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Across level checkerboard, flooding the game,
\ndrowning the forestland man would not tame,
\nBishops and knights ran away from high tide
\ncaused by soft gangsters who wanted free ride.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Thus was the future left up in the air:
\nwould free man survive or be forced to share
\nall that he earned with entitlement breed
\nriding a paper utopian steed?<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

Just Desserts<\/strong><\/font> <\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Capone left alone was shone barely alive.
\nHell in a cell where he could not connive.
\nWell he could connive, but to little avail
\nwith syphilis eating his will to prevail.<\/strong><\/font><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Thus to the two-faced deceptual breed
\nwhich strives to arrive at the end with a lead
\nby amoral means and nefarious ways
\ntill some exposition deposes that phase.<\/p>\n

<\/strong><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n

Though not as exciting to those who need doubt,
\nvirtuous methods will always win out.
\nPreserving the smile side when crying begins
\nby positive posers who’ve hidden their sins.
