The Flesh of Innocence

In smoke filled rooms
Eyes feed
On the flesh
Of innocence
Wants fuel the imagination
As sanity lingers
Mans putrid need
To satisfy his urges
Create a demand
For taught skin
And callow minds
Fixated, fixated, fixated,
On the dollar signs
Spent, earned, forgiven,
Lost
Forever
In a purple haze
The music stops
As lipstick stains
Mar reality
We look the other way

You grab the heart and jerk it tightly, this demands a response from anyone who reads it.

Nicely done.

I pray I don't look the other way--

in
a world
full of smoke
eyes hungered
for peace for long
wants to fuel there dreams ,where sanity lives.

Mans
crazy world
is thousands of years old
since the devil made his move
got proud and screamed out loud

NO !

"not
going to
let Adam live in peace
instead of calling god ill make him call the police

and
i promised
to make him say a greedy YES !
to each and every race with eyes fixated on the dollar sign

he
well kill
for the gold"

that's
when i
was passing by.

a traveler
living a lie,
of eagles peace
singing along my way
dollar sign ,dollar sign dollar sign !..

then
came the moon ray
and sat me free

wait a second !
can you see ?
if only you can see what i see?
if you see the blue pill
on the dollar bill .
cant promise heaven
for you or for me
yet may be... just maybe.
you well break free
face the ilumenated world
eye to an eye
unafraid to stand alone
against an eternal enemy
and walk along the way
to peace of heart and mind
FREEDOM !
Raise your head !
End the wars
and open doors
give us love and peace instead
The music stops !
as blood stains
a door opens
i get up and look towards the light

I like this, and I see there is a line added as well. The repeated "fixated" was a great touch....3rd time is a charm.

As the comic uses laughter to comment on society so you have used words in such a fashion to paint an emotional & visual image in your poetry. Thank You!
Blessings!

slips a five $$ bill into her G string.. buys her a refreshing drink.. and leaves her with her.. silence and all her questions unanswered, unfinished.. untamed ...and with little delight!!
