night of the storms torrential in my mind
i am the mercury child
these words have taken so long
before you receive to forget
let my words cling to you
as etchings in a trunken-core
let they grow inside as
this disease has me
let you watch a virus. spawned
observe the tainted seed
genetics are no match,
in envy, they are found
drooling at the wayside
i am the mercury child!
blazing at a speed
infantile and naive
navigated the belts
asteroids of my mind
a seasoned veteran
with clarity
bearing the gift
of justice,
indeed!
these words have taken soo long
they've echoed in my head
for so long
can you relate
my connections, weighted and heavy
are building a dam, or maybe a levy
for years it's stormed, grown old and rusted
much like mental erosion, once so trusted <<--* depression *
locked in a rhyme, i'm forced ever-hither
more limmericks indeed, pointer on the triggerrr
for years i thought of my depression as a hole
this weight upon my mind and sickening my soul
was it a poison of reality let go
or injected through limbs and veins
the very hands i fight with, the lungs
polluted and mishapen
i feared the bad news for so long
now i've seen the right and how you're wrong
the penalty shall be swifter than the truth
for my brother is Mars and he shall deal with you..
