doofus

Clothing to cover the shame
Umpteen failed attempts in vain
Stay indoors to avoid the rain
All enthusiasm gone down the drain

Witness to prove one’s innocence
Silent to fulfill one’s penance
Struggle to control the decadence
Wallowing within fake repentance

Personal props that inhibit clarity
Drawn by the exponents of disparity
Steering the helms of reality
Careening over the edge of mentality
