Patience

Patience
 
Sitting and waiting in America
for pleasantries,
debaucheries-
the worship of a break,
a roman woman’s shape
wrapped-
financially under Christmas trees with
cosco toiletries and
wal-mart tendencies,
abundant economics,
and suburban luxuries.
 
Sitting and sifting
without moving, through absent policies,
impulses,
a belief in implausible catastrophes-
 
the ebb and flow of debauchery,
tied to my continuous infancy
making me struggle with agony-
making me sluggish, idealistic,
the resolution right within me.
 
No coup de oeil,
no Phaedrus, no occasion for serendipity,
virtue, and desire-no periphery.
 
The autonomy is a song and
we dance, we sling love;
wanton and feral for a chance, a perchance,
aka a boring interim for the suffering of-
the perfected beauty loss-of-me,
 
the economy, pharmacology and
free-lance-forestry,
For when, we want recondite
occasionally,
silence splendidly-
 
when because is irrationality.

Just how I feel at times...

I like the rhyming, it almost feels like something Eminem would sing (compliment, not slur). It also explains how the world is doing today.
