Reflections at a breeze while time keeps laughing

oops

Watching the sun reflect off the sprocket
a trance of colors and reminders of summers before the snow
click click click children laughing cards in spokes
balls bouncing with rhythms bringing songs of excitement in the air
bird call and mothers snickers sheets blowing softly
no need of fear the clock barely moves its insidious grin
a need to be children with the dread of growing up oh those days have gone to shade
The cash registers clash in simultaneous beeps
lines ignorance greed as slaving
televisions telling of the latest fads cars and money folly does not pay
following fathers youth spent children on there tails for better advancement with sound careers
stocks and market no more snakes and ladders
balls gone bicycles just bitter memories of things forgotten
god a belief the fore fathers wasted in there spare time no need for love only need for steal
past illusions of swallowed waters
eyes opened the echo underwater still reverberating scaring any fish in sight
the pain uncomfortable wanting to close but the wonders being like a fish
wanting gills so bad trying to hold breath bubbles have to touch bottom
mermaids swimming pirates fighting red coats floating in the wake
to be free
Cold mud covers the hand
Horn honks cars past no new fear of death hating there own lives
sirens wailing stop signs cell phones facebook goingmaddd
Time its demon face laughing mocking you for such little time
Fathers Mothers time better spent only to try to understand
that monster its lust to conniving to feed
seconds thinking is more for the Beast
watching playing but never leaving home
friends never met but know all your secrets
viewing the new god of all
with all access to seek and to destroy
laptops blackberries just tools teaching how to understand
no ore sun who needs anything you can shop online
imagination so blunt killed more in fantasy then the governments are killing in life
fantasies about money and a sitcom if you please
simple way to live a life dreaming of something other then titles
lets live for the now science has proved there is no tomorrow
such stubborn ways to waste lives in denial such a crime to the soul
blinded at infancy we gave them control

wow!
i think the lack of punctuation was different - i don't know if you did that intentionally or not, but i think it worked for the overall 'stream of thought' effect.
made it sort of difficult to read, but that's okay.
there's really not a lot else for me to say; i'm a bit stunned.
