SCRAPS #041: INDIRECTION

Pulled in both ways indirection

Wrestle motives insurrection

Spot a purpose plot oppression

My honest to God confession

I can blame this on the depression

I can blame this on the election

Searching to find my own direction

Help shout out voter suppression

These sessions obsession of mine

I find ways to cut ties binding

Coin shortages buying time

Biding by the trying times

By driving miles in my own mind

Business of my own I'm not minding

The yours versus mine divide

It's not fine it's a fine high crime

That's why I'm putting my foot down

Even if I look like a clown

Otherwise, these women kids and guys

Close their eyes and drown

For the greater good

Won't be understood

They're cutting down woods

For consumer goods

They really all should

Rehab engines that could

Focus on the hopeless

All these ghettos and hoods

Together on the real issues

Cry and deny using the tissues

Ligaments figure this litter ate

Laws of misuse will iterate

Like your face I’m missing you

Can't face to book first issue

Difference of opinion they diss you

Don't know the half you have been through

That's why I'm putting my foot down

Even if I look like a clown

Otherwise, the women and guys

Close their eyes and drown

Let us shout out nevermore

Stuck at home bed ever sore

Empty cabinets bedroom drawers

What's it for why keep them poor

Sour patch sweet and sour

Two faced ones have all the power

Sitting pretty atop a tower

Run raced mothers' midnight hour

This the end of the message

To stop this toxic septic

In our city killing endless

Calm before the storms hectic

Take it at your own discretion

To learn ourselves a good lesson

Reverse a cursed first impression

With this honest to God confession
