Krystaline Palace
Give me wings to fly with,
give me wings to soar,
away from this mediocre timeline,
unto the sunlitt shore.

Give me the will to travel
And blithely will I roam
From heaven down to Knottsville,
And never leave my home.

I took a walk one moonlit day,
and sailed along the path
To oblivion and reminisced
The days that long hath

blundered from my memories
such worn delights hath drifted
unto darkened coast
and on beyond the rolling sea
to settle with a host

of gathered dreams and wishes
ans broken hopes galore.
The seeming joy of loneliness
had grown to be no more.

I tell a tale of concerned woe
to the empty ear
Who only nods in falsehood,
and only feigns to hear.

Had I but a hammer,
I would not but hesitate to shatter
all the fraudulent transparency
of my "lovely" Krystal Palace.
