Continuum Shift

Until the last light goes out in the distant night

My greedy thoughts won't let me rest

Ere the letters have spilled onto the white

This affluence of emotion bursting out of me

Now I feel what it's like to lose daylight by the hour

Unable to make sense of the bane of this sordid generation

If all else fails I shall claim the pathos of my sacrifice

For this play is set so far beyond all logic

But my will in disregard of order is yet to be broken

I'm not giving in to the harrowing surge of apathy

These words are shaken from a restless mind

Fathered by virtue at loss for life

By a fate set in motion

Their rapier's gleaming blade pointed at your heart

It'll show you fear in a handful of swirling dust

For I wish my words were free in the onset of your denial

If all else fails I shall claim the pathos of my sacrifice

For this play is set so far beyond all logic

But my will in disregard of order is yet to be broken

I'm not giving in to the harrowing surge of apathy
