Your pain, and

Your agony

Fall off of your shoulder,

Onto your bed, willingly

Knowing the heartache

That struggles like a ship lost to the sea


The weight has been anchored for now

But the brambles, rumbles bumps and boos

Stumble through one eye to the next


Where has all the green gone too?

We disguise it ourselves as an entire society

Sabotaging each other day to day


Drowning in useless facts that make the machine more powerful

Making minorities even more minor

Making our songs seem even less provoking

And turning it all into a big joke


Bravery stops being brave

Courage stops being courageous

Fear and dispair have taken courage and

Conquered us


Now you know the stem

How much more can you chew til your body explodes?

We don’t need them

WE
NEED
YOU

Now, knowing what cracks the back

Now, knowing how the eyes read words

You can find the salad of earth

Make it

Share it

Feel it stick between your gums and teeth

Flesh and bone

Rember it, savor it. Keep it.


Hold tightly to your ideas

Sleep eat wake and walk

With them always in the palm of your hand
