entitling emptying-ness (a tonal drawing written in poetic form)

entitling emptying-ness

we all !SCREAMING! quietlying !!SO LOUD!!
selfishly shamming inside our pretending
desperately wander’n grabbing !SO SCARED!
holding on to those louder somebodies else-ing

public booty shaking’s our coffling shuffle
in closets coming out in every which’a way
better always watching where you walking
and what whom you woo-ing here when

and beseiging ourselves in words impounding
serpentining cliches rapaciously serializing
with our mathematizing self- imperializing
ingurgitate’n we legislating a vulturine abode

running all ‘round frantically fantasizing
obsessing over power with such tiny lil’l hands
probates unbeholding in this boundless expanse
and we’re all just random custodial guests

here mesmerizing in this bale synergizing
spinning with our mouths camouflaging it all
anxiously waiting for another decadencing
so aint seeing how we all imploding us all
