I've had causes because my stomach was filled with reasons.
All the overbearing words just seemed to be filling
"We all fall down once, or twice"
and that's why everybody starts at the beginning.
but, no, i want to disagree!
i want to rip the cuticles while ripping skin.
take me to the takers of taking
because he surely has solved the solution of why i'm still breathing.
the water climbs but it's suppose to be falling.
finally reaching it's clarity, realizing it's identity
i'm left crying.
children waiting for the time they get to hold hands
how quickly time slows and that's all they've got.
i'll be your right, if you take my left.
the clouds agree for once and stop.
but once you past 12, it gets a little more tricky.
you start missing fingers
for different reasons.
then you become assholes.
and we all know where this leads,
back to the beginning please.
Author notes
i wrote this just because of arguments, we all get to them. they get to us.
i'm an asshole, and i'm sorry.

interesting title, i think i like it.
your content is great. your style is a little raw and i think it could be cleaned up some more, rearrange things and take things out that don't support your main point.
"the water climbs but it's supposed to be falling"; "how quickly time slows"-- i liked the paradox of those two lines.
on the whole, i liked it.
thanks for your entry,
