Societal Skew


Our sight is skewed.

You look through a lense

yet it is not your own;

they placed a focal upon your face.

 

Constantly neglecting to notice your nose,

though its incapable of escaping your vision.

 

However you have the ability

to remove what is not real.

Sing the song, "the rain has gone".

 

Should I show you

the option to observe

you too could take off

benevolence that doesn't belong,

implications which are impossible.

 

Now look at me in a new light,

be overwhelmed by the world.

 

Power is prompted by inelligence,

ignorance is intentionally controlled.
