The Stir of Offness

This! That's not good

And for all the bliss in the world

We hiss at, but kiss one another

Be it your mistake, you let your guard down

Then to be left with a silly frown

What a shame...

You were ignorant to the 'stir of offness'

You got rid yourself in times when you needed some self-criticism

Some Malcom X life lessons

Some right on time consciousness

Caught in the 'cross fire'

The stir of offness.

A stray bullet bounced off your metal chest

Causing no epitaph but just a condescending laugh...

This offness! That's not good

But it is reality

Are you willing to compromise?
