Secret Code

1st ENTRY

By Keith McHughPublished about 19 hours ago 1 min read

Language is writing your program,

Amplifying the thought system,

So you will get lost within them,

Wondering where they stem from,

Underestimating some,

They come in like a wrecking ball,

Calling on you to fall,

Stalling the ambition engine,

Hiding your intuition,

Within the constant flow,

Throwing you off balance,

Dancing with emotions,

Advancing into a commotion,

An ocean of questions arise,

Improvising life on the fly,

Thoughts will try to divide you,

And some will guide you through,

All of them are not true,

Language has defined your view,

A stew of thought will keep you distraught,

Because you were taught to read,

Needing to feed you their greed,

A seed planted deep in your core,

Before your old enough to implore,

The need to acquire more,

Don't explore the reason why,

Just try to fit in and sit down,

Thoughts staring down nouns,

Students pronounce sounds,

On their training grounds.
