Dive into your own damned lake, <br />Take the turn - I'm going straight. <br />Your intended failed mistake <br />Has defined your only fate. <br /> <br />No, I cannot stop the herd, <br />I can't drain your ego's gall. <br />I can neither beat one nerd <br />Nor by words defeat them all. <br /> <br />But my keen and poignant phrase <br />Does reveal my only wish: <br />Live your own rusty days, <br />Poison your fucked up damned dish! <br /> <br />In your masks you look the same, <br />As perfection cheats on you. <br />You deny your spirit's lame, <br />And this way you prove it true.<br /><br />April Avalon<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/damn-13/
