Structural Defect
STRUCTURAL DEFECT
Once a strong bridge built with concrete and steel
Supporting the ways of those that travel
Standing so strong, no signs of dismay
Only to drop, no longer erect
Looking so firm, looking so tough
It couldn’t stay arise
There’s a structural defect
Being so coy, distracted by success
Caught off guard by actions of nature
Flaunting the muscles of which it was given
Only to fall, no strength is left
Tumble to the ground, destruction at hand
No chance for fulfillment
There’s a structural defect
Created for speed and power, it functions with ease
Yet sensitive and fragile, susceptive to failure
Years will pass, no signs of defeat
A structure of distress
One day, out of the blue
It came crashing down
There’s a structural defect

The source of every Crime, is some defect of the Understanding; or some error in Reasoning, or some sudden force of the Passions. Defect in the Understanding, is Ignorance; in Reasoning, Erroneous Opinion.

D7
Straight as an arrow
Defect defect
Not straight, not so straight
Reject reject
Towards anti-social
Solo solo
Standing on the stairs
Cold, cold morning
Ghostly image of fear
Mayday mayday
Gonna leave this region
Theyll take me with them
Demension seven

Hollywood Holiday
I rode my motorcycle through a watermelon patch
Right on the california freeway
I took my holy Bible on my blessed boogie woogie drive
Cause I know I know I know
Where I go oh lord theyre gonna bless me jive
Poor you poor me
Poor everybody who buy to be
Poor me poor you
Poor everybody who die to do
I parked my motorcycle on hollywood and vine
And sang till my red blood turned boiling blue
I took my sole survival and bore my cross on a string
Cause I know I know I know
What I dear I bear my charm to king
Poor you poor me
Poor everybody who buy to be
Poor me poor you
Poor everybody who die to do

I Go For Simplicity My Friend
i go for simplicity my friend
because i am poor
i do not go for sophistication
because i am poor
i do not complicate matters
because i am poor
i do not want you to misunderstand
because i am poor
i do not want you to think some more
because i am poor
i do not want to convince you
because i am poor
i do not want you to be with our side
because we are poor
i want all things in their simplified forms
because we cannot afford
any other form of convolutions
we cannot afford another revolution
it will be expensive
and we have no more years to give
to pay for the sponsors

Wreckless
You wanna break my pace stepped,
With a wreckless defect.
You wanna slip and slide...
As if we've never met!
You wanna break my pace stepped,
With a wreckless defect.
You wanna slip and slide...
And glide by high,
As if we've never met!
Don't try.
Don't try.
And I can't cope,
With your groping on my coattails.
Like you're a piece of my pie,
You wish to eat to satisfy...
A feeding kept from eyes.
Don't try.
Don't try.
And I can't cope,
With your groping on my coattails.
Like you're a piece of my pie,
You wish to eat and satisfy...
A feeding kept from eyes.
To greed as you hide!
Oh my,
Don't try!
You wanna break my pace stepped,
With a wreckless defect.
You wanna slip and slide...
As if we've never met!
You wanna break my pace stepped,
With a wreckless defect.
You wanna slip and slide...
And glide by high,
Pretending we've never met!
Oh my,
Don't try...
To fool me with your disguise.
Don't try.
Don't try.
And I can't cope,
With your groping on my coattails.
Like you're a piece of my pie,
You wish to eat to satisfy...
A feeding kept from eyes.
Oh my,
Don't try...
To fool me with your disguise.
As if,
I'm in need...
For a guide that hides.
Oh my,
Don't try.
Don't try.
Don't try.
Oh my,
Don't you do it!
Don't try.
Don't you do it!
Don't try.
Oh my,
Don't you do it!
Don't try.

There is no man nor thing without his defect, and often they have two or three of them.
Sonnet -All Men Are Imperfect, Poets Too
Why blame the Poet for the mess he writes;
All flowers bloom from stage of bud only;
Why blame the priest for poor funeral rites?
That is the way we do pray, sing, may be;
No one is perfect in his work at first;
Hard-work and time and luck, his mettle tells;
None have always the same hunger and thirst;
Nothing on earth quite uniformly sells.
By training much, one can become perfect;
Not all are geniuses, born or made;
The most perfect at times has some defect;
We don't know if our glory shall fade.
But Poets write just for the sake of it;
And very soon, they write out of habit.
