words are like acid...stinging, melting, bluring, accentuating...our misuse, abuse, or blatently covering (defining : shaping) our existence. Have a joint dude...it will release something more beautiful, meaningfull and poignent. Gotta get out of the house once in awhile too to smell the stenching glue holding the faces of others to the street pavement's filth...if you know what i mean. Kick a lick and make it sweat sweet licorice and black ice. Watch out below....their after us.

Unfinished sentences; missing punctuation and capitalisation; the bubonic plague?

someone in grade 6 (YES EVEN FROM THE UNITED STATES. THAT NATION WHERE THE PRESIDENT IS RETARDED "PRIME MINISTER POUTINE OF CANADA WANTS TO MAKE AN IGLOO FOR US?") can punctuate and capitalize. the meaning of the poem is what is important if you dont care to read beyond that then suite yourself go read jack and jill (or whatever that kiddie book is called)
