'The Fly'

By soosoncrack

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

The view from here is great if the scene were only as deserving This would never pass as non-fiction all these actions I'm observing Destruction in its rawest form degradation to the lowest stage The same story every day the only difference the number on the page Go to work each day an honest effort at hard work Paychecks don't last a day giving money away like a jerk They may get locked up have to do a little time When actually their own identity is the only victim in this crime Is it suicidal?Is it physical? Or is it just plain crazy? I guess it could be all three or maybe they just like it hazy Being the proverbial "Fly on the wall" let me tell you,I've seen some things From sex and Hookers with Presidents to "Parliamentary Pimping" by Kings You humans can be fun to watch though bent upon self-slaughter If I ever thought I was turning human I'd "kamikaze" into your fly swatter eak ©2001 Written October 22nd, 2001 © on Oct 21 2001 07:36 PM PST   0 • 9
