Cupid’s Backhand



Cupid’s Backhand

From this side of the street and they believe me a thief
Ignorance sees bad from isolated white kennels above the street
Do they really wish to know me or is it social buggery?
Fakery that’d make Holden shudder at the blatant thuggery

Promises from twisted tongues taking “my word” in vain
Ugly sisters whispering brother, minds from the drain
Materialism will get you if it’s your primary value
Within it is no esteem and it’ll outlast all of beauty’s glue

Take advantage of my naivety for my heart is open and pure
Agenda of the wicked of spirit, preying on from their lair
Am I unkempt with pictures of life that offend?
Hands hard and abandoned by love into loneliness’s tunnel of no end

I’m so cold in this Land of blood where cradle to grave is kempt
I’ve no idea who is true or serially the liar to be held in contempt
Turn up the music to drown my emotions but protect my essence
I’m the outsider, but not a traitor for I fight for quintessence
