"All Ears Avow!"

Out on the road!
Outta you're state!
Picture the apple
the hour's late.
Everyone trying
to be the same!
Uniformed and smiles, smiles, smiles
Goodbye to language
and some of these too!
A generation of intellectual amputees
Assimilation! Conformity!
As drops in a once half-empty cup!

A surreptitious kiss goodbye!
We're making way for
a much needed mini mall (?)

Outta your cage!
Onto your feet!
Knock off the dust in your eyes and repeat
New fascinations
sweeten the sounds!
Polyformed and smiles, smiles, smiles
Goodbye to process!
And noises to!
A generation of when we could work in peace
Where is the art in kissing their feet
for the last drops of a twice half-empty cup?

Some mountains! We climb to the top!
Say goodbye to wide open spaces!

Can't see the love!
All ears avow!
But no one hears!
Nobody's listening!
If I scream again!
Cry over it!
But no one hears!
Nobody's listening!
You can't single out!
All ears avow!
But no one hears!
Nobody's listening!
If I scream again!
Cry over it!
But no one hears
Nobody's listening!
Nobody, there's nobody, there's nobody listening.
