The World Through Spectral Eyes - 1. Poem
The World through Spectral Eyes
By Tiger
Living as a ghost in a world that is lively
Invisible to a society where I do not belong
The world all around me superficial and bigoted
I tarry not into the mass of ignorant humans
For I feel no need to be tormented and dejected
Living as a ghost and feeling endlessly intangible
Invisible scars within me nobody will ever see
The world oblivious to the great terror that fuels my psyche
I carry not a defense to the cruelty I see every day
For I do not wish to be blind to the great hate in the world
Living as a ghost and shrouded in illimitable enigma
Invisible to a world that thinks I am someone else
The world is unforgiving, shallow, and full of vanity
I parry not the movement to desecrate the self-righteous
For I am an individualist with a heart not forged of steel
Living as a ghost and not wanting to invoke endless fear
Invisible dreams of apocalyptic realities hidden in their minds
The world full of ignorant bliss cannot stand inexhaustibly
I vary not in my belief that most people are reprobate imbeciles
For they lack kindness and seek only personal gain
Living as a ghost in a parallel universe where no one can see me
Invisible to the light spectrum of understanding and acquiescence
The world lacks perspicaciousness of those who lack uniformity
I marry not such an attitude of ignorance commingled with animosity
For they are the ones who shall pay for their depravity
