ART OF MISDIRECTION Sometimes when boundaries seem endless And days seem infinite, a greater beauty is over-looked Viewing life through eyeholes of a blind man Resentful towards a view blanketed by darkness Space and time stolen without warning Accepting the acts that leave us in tears Become the pacifist who spreads love instead of hate A hero to a world of little hope and many dreams Swallow the pride that restricts progress And choke on the failures that lead to victory Experience simplicity and the value of no money In this counterfeit nation encircled by deception Destroy unwanted emotions that enslave and torment souls Contribute smiles to those who cannot love Can we survive in the art of misdirection? By a society who lacks a logical explanation? Nothings definite in a world full of change Become the communal savior for the unwanted seeking guidance Only those with self-interest underestimate the beauty of another Slandering individuals to help maintain self-acceptance A path left un-walked by the impressionable Today rethink your position in life Without persuasions that lead your thoughts astray The road to perdition is paved with many sinners Because the gates above did read “Access Denied” Sometimes we confuse freedom as a privilege By birth we have the right to obtain anything Somehow humanity has fallen off course A manipulative mask-wearing machine Volunteer your pain for another injection Get your fix of misdirection.
