Simplicity

I'm searching for ways to simplify
What I can dream - the things I've seen
Initiative's useless in trying to try
Motives unclean - yet we're overly keen
Tragedy's mocked to exemplify
What lacks pristine - consistency
So hold your applause for the petrified
To explain what they mean - as they shake the serene

Its the duty to build and to rectify
The darkest of light - that will break you by night
But how easy it is to subjectify
With ambiguous sight - where wrong sinks into right
And how hard it is found to contextualize
In consoling our spite - black to whitest of white
And who counts themselves brave as to testify
To the infinite fight - that we battle by night

People jump hoops just to clarify
The millions of ways - our decisions are made
Some skip this opting to patronize
The prerequisite gaze - so imbued in our ways
Some stare in hopes that they'll catch your eye
Or that someone sets stage - for a break from your cage
While the rest take great pains not to fraternize
with this large-as-life gage - that grows smaller with age

Cracks and congestion to categorize
the look in your eyes - with emotions demise
And what stand we to gain when we're fed a disguise
that leaves even the wise
making room to despise
