Poverty Of The Soul<o:p></o:p>
Poverty of the soul is what we see today,<o:p></o:p>
In chronic dissatisfaction’s headlines displayed.<o:p></o:p>
Living vicariously is really not an enlightened way,<o:p></o:p>
Makes everything precarious in a fragile sort of way.<o:p></o:p>
Where is that gratitude and respect for what I do or say,<o:p></o:p>
When silence is all that returns to me in your empty grade.<o:p></o:p>
Why give anymore of myself when amnesia rules your day,<o:p></o:p>
A funny, vacant kind of love you give back, I really have to say.<o:p></o:p>
No Gratitude, no Thanks, or no acknowledgement do I ever find,<o:p></o:p>
In an empty bankrupted soul from a very selfish one-tracked mind.<o:p></o:p>
And, your cunning recitations do make dysfunctional communications.<o:p></o:p>
Like one great-big fatal mistake, I just give while you just take.
As if dead leaves are gathered at the end of a garden rake,
You collect them all and then throw them in the trash,<o:p></o:p>
No memory is worthy of this ingrate counterfeit cash.<o:p></o:p>
This impoverished soul becomes quite the thriller,<o:p></o:p>
If one likes living with an indigent soul killer.<o:p></o:p>
But I will forgive you again and just move along<o:p></o:p>
To let you sing your old deprived victim’s song.<o:p></o:p>
