Everything Is At The Markets
What is the price for a boy’s greed
Bargain for the poor man’s soul
So he can have a star in the vast sky.
How worn out. Looking to clot his bleed
words of the rambler.
Life’s blade cuts until dull
Finds himself at crossroads of choice
The world stands still among the madness
The Devil’s magistrate beckoning him on with an angel’s voice
A world for the pockets
The madman sees what he sees
A heart for the chest
Only time will have you choke out your new lease
Something will no longer belong?
A mind for the philosopher
On the shelf will be his song
Deal he mutters
Thought references my Wonder
Meet my desires.
I envy knowledge for my own destiny
Let me gaze into the fire
Cradled between the mountains of eternity
Logic’s conceptions -no need to grieve
The world no longer speaks for me
Is it all what it seems?
What can be put to the executioner’s blade and be blamed?
can I conceive the belief that I am capable of sight
Is this why I walk the trial of time?
A leaf caught in the wind- a hostage flown off like a kite
The world will swear it isn’t in shame.
As for my soul it is held over the flame
