Analysis of Slaughtered By B S



Smothered in impressive dress.
Living to approve imitations of life.
By the many addressing,
Their ability that creates to fake.
Interpretations exhibited and homemade.

Slaughter by an onslaught of B.S.
Unlimited fed to feed upon and free.
Leaving one's own mind to lose,
Their responsibility.
Left to feel troubled and worried.

While stand out amongst a crowd.
Emotionally affected by the rejection.
Observing from a distance to watch,
Nothing of substance worthy to display.
Although the attitudes given,
Has a attractive undeniable validity.
Too compelling to ignore,
The hypnotic slaughtering of addicting B.S.
In the air.
Deeply inhaling,
As much of the B.S. one can get to breathe!

More.
Until awareness and consciousness,
Departs!
Losing all significance of what life is.
Or what it was to prioritize,
This process to make such a fuss over it
