Butterflies And Breadsticks

Shaunmatthewcpoetry

Are you eager or egotistical?

Atheist or believe in a miracle?

Dark times ahead, thought processes critical.

We live in a land of butterflies and breadsticks,

Secret societies exist, not only in the John Wicks,

Remember oaths to no man, don't try to enlist.

Chasing the stardom is just a brainwashed wish,

Dirty jezebel's always trying to give me a kiss,

Who cured people of demons and fed 20,000 with fish?

    This one works off dualities and takes a twist at the end. Nicely done.

        Wow, Shaun…this is a loaded one. You take a swing at ego, manufactured ambition, hidden loyalties, temptation, and the search for something genuinely true underneath all of it. It reads like a warning not to surrender your mind or soul too cheaply. Strong work, my friend. 🌹🖤🙏🕯️🐦‍⬛

            Never will. 😏 I’ve already told Satan that I may have to look up just to see hell… but he’s got quite the view looking up at my ass. 😂🤣
