I know this to be true I have a million friends they all live under my bed there's Lucy, Lou, Marry, and Sue They love me all, it's true When I leave for school, they stay behind They wait for me all day When I return they have such good things to say They love me all, it's true And when I am gone for far too long they venture from my under bed they wail and cry and gnash their teeth "She left us forever! She left us all for Dead!" But the moment I return they run and hug me all at once Only to have such good things to say They love me all it's true This, I know is true.

They love me all, it's true
In a soft lament Weep to earth and give us life The sky slowly churns

Haiku
this is what we'll be when our faiths deferred bent with no freedom for the caged bird our eyes will roll like maddend stallions we'll blunder in a crooked step for this is the work of our fathers this is their regret we should have had gratitude and bended our knee but we broke the order plunged into the sea atonment comes from a far away place for we're terrified of triumph sunshine on our face self loathing is spiteful, it darkend the pain we're all so lost, Gods love in vain now that we're finished I am sure to say our revelation is over as dusk breaks the day raindrops in the eyes thunder in the mouth I see rage mounting like snowfall from east, north, and south drift away, drift away, drift to the sky now we know the scriptures no lie drift away, drift away, drift to the sky we chose our fate, now we die
