Perpetual Quandries of Dischord



Perpetual Quandries of Dischord

Permanent irreversible Attatchment disorder
A lemonade stand at the Mexican Border
A traumatised disorganised old lady hoarder
The incriminating evidence on an old tape recorder 

Elements of discontent shivering through a crowd 
Firmaments of promises sent confirming love out loud
Innocents in recompense versus the indiscriminately Proud 

Hallowed ground to walk a solemn pilgrimage 
Mellowed kids found in a drugged up old orphanage 
Shallow things in the ground as we discover archaeological heritage 
Waiting for you to come around after the last disagreeable haemorrhage 

Don’t perpetuate the notions of those who deal in mis-truths
Allow the forward motion of the next generation of youths 
Avoid the multi-syllabic commotions of the sub-cutaneous systematic  word-sleuths
Explore the promotion of legislative proof 

Pay no heed to aristocracy lest you kneel before the crown 
Histories of greed and animosity as First Nation people frown 
Enhance the seed of meritocracy and do not let democracy down 
Per chance the need of mediocrity is allowing dreams of progression to literally drown

Distortions of perspective allowed too much time in publication 
Abortions and incentives disavowed by politically un -objective legislation 
Contortions of mis-directives allowed the resulting violent instigations 
Act with caution around detectives when they amount their investigations 

A conversation meant for only honest ears
An invitation sent to one who has accumulated the years of 
Inclination that went to a pub to drink more beers 
As the intimation to invent inclines financial systems into arrears 

Sunlit afternoons upon a golden prairie 
Unfit old cartoons before it all became too contrary 
The stark hit of high noon when viewing something extraordinary
The slow wit of a tycoon holding onto his self proclamations of “Legendary”

A compromise of ethics for the sake of business running 
An enterprise of genetics in the wake of scientific funding 
A stealth disguise of frenetics formed by a hedonistic cunning
The wealth suprised by the systemics involved in the economic collapses that are coming 

The concentric inheritly biased comparisons that we make 
The eccentric numerical silence of a mathematicians answer to a Fake
The barbaric energetic violence of those who are only willing to take 
Marie Antoinette on the day she proclaimed “Let them eat cake!”

A latent virus that is mutating just under the skin 
A patient silence that is waiting for the other team to win 
Egypt turned to the God Osiris as Cleopatra started to grin 
A thief conspires to other liars as Frank Sinatra sips on gin 

Confusion as the narrative gets told by a country pop star 
Intrusion as the explanative gets old when self grandiosity is taken too far 
Infusion as the comparative grows cold from irrelevant celebrity notions that stick like tar 
Inclusion as the imperative shows the hereditary emotions that break down like an old car

Respect for those that made it through hard work, strain and tears 
Inject the woes then tame it before you’re overcome by your fears 
Correct those that know then proclaim it as you want the people to truly hear
Inspect the toes of those who name it before they own up to their natural years 

Amalgamate the mass derision by theoretical inclusion 
Promulgate the crass decisions through hypothetical intrusions
Don’t perpetuate the wounds from the incisions from hypocritical delusions 
Try to ameliorate the sounds of the derision by acting in unconventional global unison

The End
