Time in a Bottle/Lightening in a Jar

 I am not the same person

That you met five minutes ago

I have changed

Yet stayed the same

What a shame

The me you are looking for

No longer exists

I stepped into the same river Styyx

Twice in the same day

Racking up my frequent flier's 

Miles of smiles

Along the well lit aisles 

Bones in neat piles

Among the hot smoking isles

I am definitely not the same shame filled person

That you almost never met

Without regret or upset

Five minutes ago

Let's go slow

You fucking hoe

Life is so tentative

You had better be retentive

Solice in bed

Is like being dead

It goes to your head 

Like a curtain of lead

Thus I do hereby wed

The shame of being dead in bed

I indict as a crime against inanity

Not just humanity

In the ocean of insanity

In a ship of fools

Who all played with their tools

This outrage broke the rules

Made for these mules

Alone and afraid

Too far they had strayed

From the masquerade

A cavalcade of fools

Turned into ghouls

And occassionally toadstools

Whose atoms and molocules

Lit up the brain

Like cosmic rain

No longer sane

In the forebrain

It was time to obtain

The sacred champaign

Of the monstrously insane

Through the use of chloradain 

And the ultramontane

The sheep were shorn

A new world born

Out of the forebrain
