If you could feel
Certain thing I've done
The rush in my desires...
I assure you most
Would cut and run
From the lake
That burns like fire

Dancing to a primal beat
Where life is trampled
Under feet
To feed the furnace
Of evermore
No time for love
Or even war

If you could see
Through shell shocked eyes
You'd know just why
I live a lie

The closest I'll get
To the Garden of Eden
Is the genesis on this
Battlefield

Bone of my bones
Were you taken from my rib?
Or, was I made from yours?
Well, I want back in
******* I want back in

Take my breath and
Run with it
And don't stop until you're
Home again

There's no brimstone below us
Just hell all around
And I've been ******
For so long

There's no kingdom above us
Just another angel down
And **** it all
If you're gone
...
poets were treated like
rocks stars until the 1960's
when poets became rock
stars after which rock stars
were treated like poets

I was fascinated by magic
Until you chose to disappear

This is my soul;
Please treat it well,
The hells it has endured,
many

But none is equal to not
Having you here, with me - free
To swallow the snake,
Ride the snake,
that ancient lake baby.

Nods to the doors not withstanding,
I miss you love,
I miss you three.
I miss you
Free.

Your freedom, the freedom you offer me.
Fat sow, full with capitalist slime child in her belly.
Let the next generation  of evil commence.
Circus in town...  “Roll up, roll up!"to smile with your oppressors.
They are on the sidelines with a chequered board awaiting you the willing pawn.  Bankers, Politicians, Big Pharma......they always win...
Trafficked child crouches ****** and beaten in the shadows of a greasy filthy bedroom.
Man sweats tears for you....seven days for your vanity...whipped by the corporate ******* to whom we are enslaved.

What are you thinking now ? I see a flicker there....moth wings behind your blank eyes.
Your mouth a capsized canoe....
Fluttering of hands... A pair of birds anchored on their earthly mooring...
Little bobbing boat on your throat, up and down in its saliva river...
Black cowhide tap tapping .. Dead animal for your pleasure.. Now manacles that bind you there, rooted like an ancient elm...Rooted as the truth trickles,
Silty sand to the seashells.
Two front doors now, your eyes , that's good to see,
Wide open....hungry animal at feeding time...
Revolution..........
