My Moral Mess

My Moral Mess

The Haunting of the farmer's loving eyes
Peering deep into the heart of the styes
Corn and wheat and soy beans too
Long live the caricature of the rural crew
The glaring deficiency of my urban tendency
The aristocracy of the beltway claims
A precedence in my own ignorant ways
Forgive me my elitist attitude
Forgive me my innateness of rude
I cannot help it who I will be, I will be
But what else can you expect from a son of D.C.

Elitism
Aristocracy
My Moral hypocrisy
Elitism
Aristocracy
My Moral hypocrisy

I cannot help but look at the rural with pity
It's hard to keep my tongue from being stupid and witty
These careless words that I spew
I wish only that I can be more like you
Love, acceptance, even a little naive
All these attributes I seem to have never receive

Elitism
