Reaction to counteraction

[gfunkbasseffect]

The motion of your emotion
Is like a wave so big
It’s like being pounced by a pig
Twist the spoken verb
Into an action you’ve only heard,
O’ how high and low are your extremes?
A bird couldn’t fly as high as a third
Or a mole couldn’t reach as low as your burrowed hole.
As fake as a rock prop on a sixties T.V. show
Stop!
Up and down
A roller coaster couldn’t compete.
You boom and bust the graph you create
And the people you meet.

Act your age!
Every time
I lose rhythm and don’t rhyme to your chime
You start a rage
Like you’re on stage
And deserve an Emmy
For the way that you behave
Looking for praise
Applause for your clause
Pity from those sitting
Front row at your show

You want to share
Some of the strife in my life
When all you have for strife
Is your dad and his wife
You want to lend an ear
Listen!
You want to help me
Console me
Take a seat
Sit in
Your fetal mind cannot handle it
I’m sorry
But no handbook exists
To help the life that you want in on
To fix

And your reaction?
No tool could be fashioned
To aid in the way
Of your actions
You think this hurt is fun?
Think again and begin to run

Talk is talk
And walk is walk
I’ve got a dart gun
And I’m going to burst that bubble
‘til there’s none

So you want in?
You better start looking
To where you begin
Actions not words
To speak louder
Than what I’ve heard
