I've got **** holes in my ears and **** holes on my fingers So every time I drop a **** The smell, it really lingers I've got **** holes on my tongue So every time I french ya You will get a taste of **** All over your dentures

The Timelessness of Overarching Power Structures in the Age of Political Upheaval
I'll ride the old phantom route 45 that runs right by this broken house Her ghost roams still, and I get no sleep at night So I'll pack my bag and grab the howling dog and hit the old phantom 45 She plays the old 45s, on a record player with no platter Oh phantom 45, she speaks to me at night Stains remain on the bathroom floor and so too, they exist on my heart So to hit the old phantom 45, they call the 70 now I'll hit 70 doing 70 and never look back to the old phantom 45 The road sign still stands on the softly swollen ground Outside the home we once shared Now her restless spirit wanes in dusky drizzle Since I hit the old phantom 45

Speed Limit Signs, The Ghost of Old Roads
Under stone lamp posts he took me by the hand Walk little boy I'll make you understand God has chosen you to be the man God has chosen you to wear his crown Broken through barriers, the road is quiet The path that we travel is clear and bright God has chosen me to be the man God has chosen me wear the crown Lectures in the forecourt they gathered round Come little girl and hold my hand God has chosen you, it's his command God has brought you here to understand The fields turn red in distracting light The soldiers have arrived to heed the fight God has chosen them to make a stand God has chosen me to protect his lambs Burning battle fields turn to rivers of blood God speaks to me through the wood God has chosen me I still believe God told me that I must leave God will carry me into the light God will hold me through the night Sombre is the morning, dew underfoot Crying are the mothers, for their fallen sons God feels distant when I ask for help God only cares about himself Ceremony dances in the pale twilight Cups full of juice for the lambs tonight God carries me home, I still believe God had chosen me to take lead Distant are the screams as I fall to sleep Distant are the voices that chose me

Din
Self-indulgent panic of the scarring emotion Blood across a mirror cracked Where her body lay for days Disingenuous apathy of a solemn kind To meet her gaze in the evening din Lifeless she lay and he laid to A wave that breaks, in romantic ocean breadth A breath that fell silent and so too does the head White dress, petticoat, floundered folly Lovers in the summer rain That never shall see a sunrise again

Remnants
Running from the future until the sole is worn into Abyssinian empiric solitude Where the only voice that speaks is the hollow tone of history's fatalism Destined for the furrowed smile of luxury's unknown apathy Growth hormone empath who sleeps frozen under cosmic abandonment A chancers change of chanson song that sweeps the windy street A vignette of turgid stories that predict the rising tide of paperless bedsheets

Wherever Lays the Head, So Too Does the Heart
Water only runs in the house of a holy man But the prayers of a parched child are ignored in favour of the money man's plan Believe in a God all you want he won't save you Nihilism saves valor Believe in nothing and nothing can hurt you Those empty symbiotic phrases of the faithless Listen to the chimes of the ice cream van and despair at the crimes of a suit and tie man Crunch of steel in a midnight collision they collude in hopes of derision Under desk lamp ambiance, in heated rooms 13th floor apartment blocks where the doorman knocks where the doorman knocks Time and crime again, and lie and try again Paid protests in the streets Digest your intellect, removal of a safe space So that they might turn the power switch The blackout comes when revenue succumbs In your ancient catacombs, where matted bandages hang and drip crimson onto dusty floors Smeared where they jeered at the death of a democracy This is the corner of civilisation, torn down and replaced with a bank

They Use Fear as Indoctrination, It Keeps Us Pacified and Eager to Consume
Waif-like drifter on a fading cloud the saddest sound makes its rounds The outer limit of this town She speaks to herself somehow How her life turned around after hearing a siren sound Oh, the wolves abound As she stumbles from that crowd And so her rueful mind aloud split the seam and scheme and shout for whatever worth she receives in clout or any mirth that fuels her doubt By the bracken broken, beaten paths through trails of time and solemn laughs she finds herself alone at last In lonesome graves of her lovers past

How She Found God In Derbyshire
Where else but eastward, they lay Onward by the pine tree felled How sullen the moss how sudden the loss Oh but the grass is still green and the feral badger still mean Where golden odour wisps o'er head or cattle gather to be fed This meadow makes giants

Since
Arkansas skies, endlessly wise and wider than the bluest tide Dam closed so **** close to the edge, bullishness of the blueish hue Borders of the borderland shuffles eastbound, walls get built and torn back down To see a thousand sunsets, grows tiring Turn my back, decision made to see no more

By the Cuff of the Wrist, Over the Edge of a Cliff
Chronologically, the life force of upward momentum Eratus, irrigated field leaves at the backdoor Leaves in the mailbox Always upward, from below, the deepest place This may have been out of my frame of reference though Did you see the half-mast falsehood Up the pole, down the hole Listen to the secret word Monitor of the algorithm
