Real...!



the spook of fright,
on this scary night;
the left's agenda, the right's agenda,
the muslim cause, the christian cause,
pro life, pro choice,
this is my voice...

people are who they are,
different, each one a far away star...

opinions & assumptions,
miscommunications,
running on feelings & emotions,
more are only the waves on the oceans...

i watch fox and msnbc,
all blind, none can see;
each spewing there own,
better is the good seed sown...

spare me the riff raff,
all will see the reaper's staff,
none can hide from dying,
it matters only on whom youre relying...
