2.5192 : 7/21/19 : Many Outliers (The Experiment: 27/100)

Does this fit the pattern?
already so many outliers
Try to buck up but oh Mama
could I run with the high fliers
used to call it early riser
same old time and same old place
gave up on the formalism
and oh hell this look on my face
I am dreaming of the pattern
but it will take working ahead
I am trying to see glory
but each time I'm feeling dread
this is the one but one
the only moment other present
I will join the new dominion
tell that president to get bent

2.5191 : 7/20/19 : Poison (The Experiment: 26/100)

Pick my poison
some things go way back
No grace or poise on
build up the stack
with another admonition
to ignore all prior timelines
Latest hymn to king attrition
scrapping coins to pay my rhyme fines
my inflation style syllabic
pick my poison see the trend
watch me pull my usual drab trick
drift lift spill mill wend

2.5190 : 7/19/19 : FIVE (The Experiment: 25/100)

Seen each card in this hand
So give me another five
Can't imagine much luck coming
but I have to try you understand
merely a hook where my hat's hung
what's left beyond to strive and strive
or mooch around this shill I'm slumming
look askance at my lute loose strung
remember the day of the green band?
for me three more to five
not going anywhere, alive
So pray keep wound this slender strand

2.5189 : 7/18/19 : Fun (The Experiment: 24/100)

Whatever fun I had in mind
forget about it
whatever plan
I thought I'd find
sincerely doubt it
looking too hard at
the mirror
wondering who
will crack first
and will some
new passage appear or
will the fun
unleash the smack burst

2.5188 : 7/17/19 : True Quill (The Experiment: 23/100)

You with the true quill
shouldn't condescend
to tell us hoipolloi
about our foolish dreams
and where the path
of striving ought to meet its end
look to your own fault
Shift your own eyebeams
Don't we know well enough
who's known and who's admiring
who makes a dark patch
in the shadows of the crowd
it's not your place to
critique our poor desiring
so zip it if we dare
to dream out loud

2.5187 : 7/16/19 : No Opinion (The Experiment: 22/100)

Wiped out and
don't even care about it
getting up
is the key, I doubt it
interest is
fading fast now
in iconoclast now
no opinion and
no hill to shout it
I'll cop
it's the easy shortcut
I can moan that
I lack support but
say I keep trying
is anyone buying
Say keep your chin up
and I retort what

2.5186 : 7/15/19 : Imaginary Friends (The Experiment: 21/100)

Talk silent keep it
in your head
subvocal by
inner eye be led
It's been awhile
while I pursued the winding ends
but I think I
need to check in
with my imaginary friends
Dear souls I
really need a better way
to feel about this mess
Dear souls
I'm suffering a
fair bit past the usual distress
Want to feel positive
a winner
full of confidence
but I'm not hearing
much reply
so shrug goodbye
and hie me hence

2.5185 : 7/14/19 : The Farthest (The Experiment: 20/100)

Just fooling
fooling fooling
I ain't none
of their kind
and the page
no doubt the farthest
it will get
past my mind
