Sour Grapes, Rotten Thoughts
by James BlaylockSour Grapes, Rotten Thoughts
reaping what we sow
should cause us caution,
but we tend to revel in revenge,
therefore, giving in to numbness
we'll make the unjust pay for everything,
with ourselves eating of the same rotten fruit...
as it's a vicious circle spinning,
one where nothing fits the plate
