Festering in Man

Manifest: what is festering in man?

The strangest incendiary impulses-

My perverted brain is prepared to pull women's clothes off like overripe banana peels;

Though I assure you, this is normal.

My carnal instincts may only be subdued by me doing push-ups, indefinitely.

Manifesting in my body is indomitable envy.

As my expiring mind tickles over my multitudinous undiscovered talents, withering away, In comparison to the glorified newfangled successes; they are surely famed succubuses.

Still I know, manifesting underneath my chaotic tendencies is a thin film of all I adore: The leading conductor of life's tragedy.
