Remiss

Lackadaisical dewdrops
Dreamy in my eye
Dirty little secret
Polluted you and I

Languid little larks
Just falling from the sky
Betraying a deep dark secret
Life is wonderful lie

Green, green grass, a faded brown
Water sweet denial
Delusion fixes everything
We happily defile

Distant, daring, dreamed delights
Found inside a vial
Blood of demons recreated
Mankind found on trial

Dip your mind into the well
Lay ink upon the page
History is all we know
The future is our cage

Softy, sweetly sing songbird
Save your soul of rage
Listen to the little voice
That whispers like the sage
