Cigarettes and Masturbation
What has the world come to
When a decent man smokes flat cigarettes
And poetry is reduced to a General Surgeon's warning
The cogitation of lost sperm had spurned lucidity
And a humble man's promise is lost to us forever
Ozone-scented thunder wakes us up to momentary grandeur
But ceases its effects as soon as impact is met
Then we are back again
And not so much by apathy but by indifference
Thus the sperm kept alive exists in vain
And the memory of the promise fades
As rain, pacified by toxicity, drowns out its music
Music that the people had the audacity to replace
With digestive bi-products recurring last farewells

Lack of interest or concern, especially regarding matters of general importance or appeal; indifference.
Still a good poem, regardless. I still can't believe I took time to inspect your faulty contradiction by way of thesaurus. *8*
P.S.
Indifference:
apathy demonstrated by an absence of emotional reactions
P.P.S. I am a f**king loser.
