Unseasoned Matter

Unseasoned Matter
by Alexis Pena (Goco)

And even the media, broadcast
overtones fortelling my identity;
Enchanted my thoughts
about brothers, or sisters,
twins, or both, and a guttural certitude
that the condition of being myself,
summoned the evidence,
primitive and foretoken -
boded ill for imitation. 
Departure: Since you care enough,
common people given praise
to your self interest,
or do they?, that you leased
your blood to someone elses
residence and leased your future
into someone elses hands;
a child is the counterpart
to the parents' spirit - to relieve them 
from the fear of the unknown and
reveal to them the secrets of life - 
instead your resentful conceit
and reduced, idle existense;
a lewd portrayal of affection
bordering equivalence to cheap diapers;
In expectation, I am forever insulted.
