Standing Rock

The pipeline is the bloodline,
of an Empirical Two Headed Dragon,
The Divided States of America used to be united,
can someone please tell me what the heck happened,

Standing Rock just might be the last stand for anyone that’s still standin’,

Standing Rock,
is not a photo op,
it’s not a festival,
it’s Indians and Cops,

more correctly,
it’s Native Americans and Corporate Hitmen,
it’s the crossroads,
where environmental defense intersects with big business interests,

it’s getting intense,

water cannons and flash grenades,
mock democracy and a Trump presidency,
military disguised as cops,
and cops disguised as military,

as the original defenders of this land,
continue to make a stand,
at Standing Rock this is not a photo op,
this is indirect imperial tactics meets Direct Action,

highly ironic,
that I write this on Thanksgiving,
the day before Black Friday,
tell me what you do that’s worth livin’,

Quite fitting,
that I’m writing this on Thanksgiving,
a “holiday” in a way,
but really just a heist by villains disguised as pilgrims,

well then,
where does that leave us now,
several hundred years later,
at Standing Rock having a powwow,

how,
have we gotten here,
and how,
as so little changed we’re,

still in this sticky situation,
battling hearts that are as black as oil,
still ******* the blood out of Mother Earth,
still battling Two Headed Serpent Dragon as it coils,

the pipeline is the bloodline,
of an Empirical Two Headed Dragon,
The Divided States of America used to be united,
can someone please tell me what the heck happened,

Standing Rock just might be the last stand for anyone that’s still standin’.

Defendin’,
the Sacred,
with Love,
over Hatred.

Water Is Life.

Holding hands together, three years old
in your hands on a winters night I find my warmth in the cold
We grew up on the same street, a few doors away;
we were almost the same in age you know but for a single day
They say we were made to be forever, even when we were young
sitting on the hole filled carpet playing little games, just childish fun
And when your tiny mouth smiled, I smiled too,
and when you used to laugh a lot, I laughed back at you
On the summer days at 7 years old, we’d build houses in the trees
And the folk from down the street would watch from their windows and whisper have you seen him with Louise ?
I held out my hand to pull you up, when you’re dress caught a nail and you became all stuck
You told me I’m your hero, I’ll could save the world,
But you were my princess in a castle, you’re a damsel girl
And I can rescue you from all the nails in the wood, my god, our friendship was so beautifully good
but I knew and you knew too…..
And when my parents divorced back in 83
you walked the 2 door walk to hold my tears and in your tiny arms you cradled me
You whispered life is strange and these things happen, it throws you a bad deal now and again
But I’ll always be here to pick you up, and boy there’s no shame in crying
In the school halls there were others, but that’s when I really knew
that in my heart you were the only one , in my heart there’s only room for you!
Together in class together we would sit, you in your pretty blue dress
I still hold my breath, my eyes smile at you and I’m longing to confess
and from the corner of my eye just now and again
I’d watch as you roll the tip across your lips of your blue inked pen
How I wish my tongue could roll across your rose red lips,
daydreaming of how I caught you in my arms on that day you slipped
still wondering just how you feel

And every so often you look at me Louise, with a smile so soft and sweet
I long to be five years old again rolling the red ball down the evening street
I see how the other boys in this school
Look at you the same way I do
And I get awful scared, that you’ll run off with one of them
then my soul will never be the same
In the backseat of your parents car, when we were 9 years old
Forever friends together we’ll stay, the promises you made and told
Now we’re 18  and known each other for so long
Are these thoughts of you really that wrong
Because I’ve loved you forever and wrote you cryptic love songs
Waiting for you to decode them
Do you remember many years ago at the Independence Day party?
My dreams came true as I drove you in my car, Louise you went there with me
your tiny dress wrapping up your perfect skin
I wished for only one second, the war with my feelings I could win
The others dance around us in the room, my heart was taken, my love was doomed
And when I held you, like a baby i trembled
Are we dancing ……………. are we moving,  
I looked into your eyes my friend I told you, love would always win
The last time I kissed you, was at my party way back when we were ten
We could be the same person, we know each other so well
We’re just so fitting together that much you can tell
And our lips touched in that room beneath the pale blue moon
And our song on the speakers was playing

We found the tree house we built when we were seven
It’s the spot I saved for a little piece of heaven
we did those things that young lovers do in the place our tiny hands created
So the tree house we made when we were young
Became the place I was laying when my faith begun
And the journey we both took to get to this place
Were the concrete foundations to keep us safe
But I’ll never forget that July night, when in my arms you rested so i held you tight
And below the leaves of the house in the trees,
I kissed your lips my sweet Louise
