Ignorance or ignorant? 
Who should be blamed? 
Arrogance or arrogant? 
Who'd take the blame? 

Narrow lines and tempered minds,
Tapered layers, how'd they ignite? 
So, do tolerance never tolerant 
Misses the flight. 

Fiery the furious, fast the first; 
Is lousy the lazy one? 
Virtue and vice, vivid and vague,
Shimmer and shine, sparkle, and skate. 
Is dazzling the lustrous one? 

Bewilderment is nice, bafflement isn't; 
Bewitching is worse, bewitched freakin'. 
Riding to rise or falling down a slide,
Standing after that, it's definitely a pride. 

Deeds are always counted,
No matter what they are— 
Sins or salvation,
Zero to one. 

But you were in the minus; 
Addition was out of reach. 
Always the division,
Multiplication a breached. 

The answers were always there,
But I was blind, couldn't see. 
Wore a blindfold of my weaknesses 
That you wanted, thee. 

The forgotten keys that I hid,
Found those in the enigma lid. 
To laugh at my plight or to cry the whole night,
The riddle was solved at stake of my might. 

Taffy temptation,
A temporary template. 
Permanent is what 
They call a blueprint state.
