Two Ponds

The wrong words are said
They put a sign on your head
And kick you to the land of Nod
Believing you disconnected wasted and twisted
In a world that's cold and odd

Of Kingdoms and their pride
Selling utopian wine
And all of us blind and numb
Decency's forgotten
Apologies spoiled and rotten
Red stains burn in the sun

From the sky the night watches
Global matches falling down a fragile drain
In a wasteland that shouts through societies mouth
How do I get rid of these stains

Oh the prophets and their sages
Have warned future ages
When the only thing that matters
Are the vipers flutes
Protecting the roots
They're in fruit that only shatters
The truths losing steam
What remains goes downstream
To the hourglass of your room

Sand keeps on dropping
There's no stopping
The month of may to June
