Everything Colorless

Edited by:  Randy Sturridge

Clones of shattered youth are born

Evacuated shells of previous generations

Emotionless days and vacant dinner tables

Hard tiled floors of a cultureless nation

Perpetuating activism fighting for others

Bi-products of war and deaths of mothers

Speeches of yesterday drown out the skies

Propelling future hopes of past mentioned times

Everything colorless with senses so plain

Society forgotten with faith in nation deranged

Clones built on promises of better days

Slowly accepting all these shades of grey

Genuine Construct

Never stop, never settle down

One step ahead, on safer ground

Lock the windows, draw the shades

Down with the lights…candles okay

Struggle a constant, picking my head

Must secure a solution unique and unsaid

Perilous days are all that remain

Evacuated majority wanted no more pain

Malicious mistreated revenge declared

Tattered remnants from societal warfare

A genuine construct novel and beyond

Electrical particles tested all wrong

Plausible admonitions cautioned to late

as ideas of wonder influenced rage

Disease took hold unfathomed in stride

Purging the land not a matter of sides

Who are the victims who are the foe

No sides declared just survive with the flow

Public Relations

Public relations is one hell of an industry

With the ability to re-create any event in history

Re-defining the motives fueling causing and effect

Directing a focus by political sects

Supply and demand quite convoluted these days

with all of the endorsed factors in play

Tipping the balance that allows us to be free

Anything is possible with public relations you see

The cost of goods and services continue to rise

With the consistent passing as our small business dies

The corporate machine drives inflated costs

With intricate conveyance the truth becomes lost

An opportunity exists for every single man

To expose these obvious motives if he can

Rations on deck with the promise of depression

Open your eyes its the public relations direction
