There was 6 days known to not have no war in the 20th century,
or so I have been told by a Jehovah’s Witness, we conversed deeply
about life, how the world is going to end, the end is near at times,
it is at its brink, and she left me on the floor to warn others,
I kept riding the elevator,
as far as it can go,
it stopped on another floor,
and a pretty girl entered,
I spoke to her,
I spoke to a prostitute today,
We conversed deeply,
how she can’t find anyone
to love her anymore,
I can see through her,
beyond the greed in
her eyes,
wanting to love,
yet choosing money
in hands, I figure
we do what we have
to do at times to survive,
do you call that being alive?
how we thrive, amidst
negative vibes, the devil
keeps us busy, she smiles,
she left me on another
floor to meet her date,
farewell my fair concubine,
As she walked,
a gentleman entered,
he was medicated,
as he meditated,
he spoke how the
pharmaceutical were
the biggest drug pushers,
I couldn’t get a word in
edge wise, and he left me
popping more pills, he had
to pick up more medicine,
to cure his ailment,
I bid you adieu,
I have gone through each floor and hallway, searching for the answers,
and I come up to empty spaces, no names to the faces, everything is
made in China, can they make my dreams there too? The bottom
line, its always the bottom line, they worship the dollars, and idolize
Andrew Jackson and Benjamin Franklin, singing we are the champions,
WE ARE the champions.
