Inquiring Minds (Should Read a Book)

SO TIRED OF LOOKING AT THE FRONT PAGE,

WATCHING ACTORS ON THE NEWS.

AND I CAN STAND THIS ANYMORE, THIS CULTURE BECOME DEFORMED.

JUST LIKE A CHILD WITH A TOOTHACHE

WE TAKE OUR CANDY WITH A GRIN

BEFORE WE NOTICE THE DECAY

WEE DOUBLED OVER FROM THE PAIN,

AND SOME OF US STILL WANT MORE.

AND A MOMENT TO REFLECT. NOW WATCH THE VULTURES HUNGRY EYES

FEED ON OUR LIVE,

TIL NOTHING ELSE REMAINS.

JUST A SHELL OF WHAT WE HAD

ANOTHER CRUEL INDIFFERENT FAD

AND NO ONE ELSE TO BLAMETIMES TICKING ON THE WORTH OF A STRANGER

YEAH, I, WAITING ON THE NEXT ON TOO.

ENTERTAINED BY OTHERS MISERY

DO WE CARE? I DOUBT IT

CAN LIVE WITHOUT IT

WE LAUGH AS OTHERS LOSE
