and then sometimes, it’s the simplicity of the lyric –

unobtrusive cadence –

silence –

before the phrase…

i tend to look for that same – (in)equality in life.

so many times we over-quantify our justification.

presume preeminent jurisprudence when in fact,

we own less than assumed autonomy over our purpose.

how ostentatious –

contrived –

hypocritically pronounced!

surely, you do not imagine yourself – higher than –

greater – than –

(self-proclaimed -) elitist – do you?

temporal –

with such sinful disregard,

you flaunt your affected – morality…

flagrantly inept,

you deconstruct the foundation of believability –

simply by assuming yourself – the axis!

spoiler alert –

this world does not –

even remotely –

revolve –

around – you!

(you surmise my silence implies ignorance,

yet you speak, and remove all doubt…)
