Runaway, breakdown On lockdown Someone pulled the switch Someone tell that female dog She aint nobodys Which, by the way, culminates into this, Colliding hiss
As the chemist battles the physicist On a topic so trivial So tempting They simple could not resist
In a medieval pillar of a castle In a city spoken of as simply magical With a moat running all across The peripheral The tangible The goats bowing to the flags holy cross And in the deepest dungeon Below the bickering of the block The peeling of the onion The skin begins to rot
And as they debated As to the odds and ends In emblazoned Fiery voices Choices, were made to eventually bend The answers Were hidden in their faces Complacent in their places Below their very feat To be exact Under their seat Exactly where they sat
He thinks he knows what hes talking about She thinks it can only help To scream and shout To lash out To take a swing and knock his lights- Too many fights Lead to these two brilliant minds Never being able to see eye to eye But beneath them waits This soul to escape
They say the darkest hour Is right before the dawn He heard them stop for a moment And under their castle lawn He knelt and prayed This haunting freedom Would make him their slave And to his grave He prayed for the dungeon Who always called his name

lol! Did you read my comments?? Or is this another eerie coincidence :O
Well I love this for many reasons, but I'll just touch on the poetic stuff, and not so much the topic.
The awesome flow and wordplay get top marks, of course!
The blunt sauciness displayed profusely throughout, is always a crowd pleaser, for me anyway : )
Hmmm...yeah, that's it. I enjoyed this. Great job Mangos!!

I'm inclined to mention that no matter how long and dark the night... dawn cannot be denied. *sigh* Thank heavens for that!
Another great write here. I'll echo the comments of the others... interestingly placed rhyme, great use of near rhyme as well and terrific flow. There is an insistance to this that I like very much... it reads as a bit of poetic screaming, I think. And... with regard to it's poetic value AND it's content, I can only say - shout on, Mangos... oh, yes, do.
