Can you keep a secret? Or will you tell the Truth? Boxes piled high enough they're spilling through the roof And toppling your house of cards Buried under proof. Singing he's arraigned Singing he's arraigned. » Continue Reading
Like helium in a lead balloon Taking up the whole damn room And drag us down till we meet our doom Is this what it's like to fly? Like lithium coursing through my veins A balancing act not to go insane Will it ever be the same? Is this what it's like to sigh? Mentally, my chemistry's not prepared for this. Physically, I intrinsically wither and twist. » Continue Reading
First commandment: That's insanity, When you're preaching 'bout the perils Of falling into vanity. Get a Job, man Stop the depravity. Took everything he had and then tortured his family. For what? To win a bet with the devil? Guess you won the pot, but now You're on his level. Dear Lord, Turn the other ch » Continue Reading
This is kinda a workshop for me, so reusing bits and pieces of older stuff that I didn't quite like and trying to make it better... He's watching over you tonight with his narcissistic eye He wields the power to make you cry Locked like oceans’ tide. He thinks his mass gives him might And tries to pull you in too tight But, Ganymede, you can leave tonight An » Continue Reading
Hey there, man, do you need a hand? You're looking down and out. Do you have a plan? Do you have means? How much sand Is slipping, slipping through the Hourglass? I'll listen to all you have to tell. I hear you saying that it's like hell. I might not be able to make it well, but I'm here. I'm here to help. He said, "I was born » Continue Reading
Am I the only one? Am I the weirdest in the room? Or is my conniving mind telling me that I'm strange? Hate casual conversation. How's the weather? I'm feeling fine. How's your sister down in Shreveport? I don't care, but guess I'll lie. Am I the only one Who didn't want to go to prom? Dress up like your mom Or dad in your fancy clothes. » Continue Reading
Like Thoreau, I go to the great once known within my own reliant self to find my health amongst the wealth of reality -- To explore once more what I adore within the core of our shared humanity, which was lost to this illusion of society. Though I adjourn, I may return having learned to discern sincere concern from the chur » Continue Reading
They brought their sheets to the school board meeting and erected a cross to set ablaze. Some in awe and some aghast, all there stood amazed that they brought their sheets to the school board meeting but didn't bring their masks. They screamed, "Books filled with heresy," and shouted, "Burn the witch!" They demanded teachers on the chair, "Strap them in, and throw the switch!" » Continue Reading
I walked. I walked. I walked through the city, And I knocked every door For the people to hear me. Then we marched. We marched. We stomped through the mud. We fought against the tyrants Til the flood of our blood. We took our lashes from the fascists in designer suits While their henchmen raised the tension with their gas and boots. And the » Continue Reading
I built this home of skin and bones nestled in a nest within my head. So cozy curled up here alone wrestling with what rests of dread. They say that eyes are windows to the soul; to me they're windows to behold a world beyond my home. My inclinations are to draw the shades To close my lids, live in my brain Here within my home. But outside a waving pas » Continue Reading
I don't know. Don't got it figured out. I have some thoughts, But I've got my doubts. Everybody's looking somewhere for answers they'll never find. I don't have it figured out, but I don't mind. I would build a rocketship and fling it past the moon, Through the astroid belt, past Jupiter, Saturn, and Neptune. I would ev » Continue Reading
I'm not too chic; I could never click with a clique, and it's not tongue-in-cheek to say I pique some curiosities. But once a week, I'd like to take a peek and live a dream and fly, at least above anxiety. But here I stand. My feet planted firmly on land. Overwhelmed human. But, at least, I'm not too chic. » Continue Reading
