       My Illusion                   9/30/05




                                                                                    

            

We are strange beings;

Living our lives like rabbits
in a global maze roaming the land
in a reproduction daze;

Repeating the same cycles
without knowing or listening to the unwritten signs;

Confused between the rules
and what's right and wrong in God's sight,
but illegal in the government's wrights;
It's weird how we dream for flashy cars
and diamond rings
when life is worth more than all those material things,
but we want the American dream;

Rags to riches,
from sleeping in ditches
to sleeping with the baddest chickens,
all because the size of my breeches;

But the life I live is worth more than one night of lustful passion
in secret harlot's mansions;

I'm quietly laughing…
