Off Scale Life

Lapse into a civilized world
Where words mean anything
Up means left and spin around
Thought provoked by drone of box
Pressure building, breakneck speed
To a crescendo of money …

Mystify under magnification
Another endeavor three orders down
Sentience exists on a different scale
Where realms apply their myths
In reconstructed follicles
Ancient eros on a half shell
Existence spanning time in the course
Of several seconds, before reality returns …

Crawl from the world and withdraw
To kings and queens, rhymes no reason
Where bread and circuses distract
Reality is what you believe
Response ability lags as
Abdication of thought to others
Becomes the accepted mode
What happened when Atlas shrugged?
