Rag Doll

By MikeShank1989

Cut from the wrong cloth, a maverick, forced to embrace another fabric
Valiantly I arise from disgrace, clear the flies from my face
Soldier on with my knack on my back like a coat of arms
Superfluous fluency with my native tongue became a burden
Dramatic schematics were drawn like blueprints to confrontation
We’ve warped our societal norms, deformed storms of gingerbread men
I’ve seen my fellow brethren weathered from travel to the end of the tether
Never ceased unleashing absurd adjectives
Threw vacuous verbs into the mix like chemical additives
Simplifying for the generation of disheveled reading levels
Brought up in a faith of fear, made to evade the devil
Learning in the end that the fallacy in the palace pertained to phallus
