so very self absorbed

dear sweet child

(oh but i see...you are older now

out the door

what?

sent  to fight

in some war somewhere)

well

as i was saying

we are so self-absorbed

in the wrongs false lovers

have done to us.............

our revenges and the like

you know

its hard to think of you sometimes

where are you?

oh yes

i said it before

out to war

(i read about war long ago in high school

We walk here / there / all around

It takes a long time to create a world

We learn a few tricks along the way

But we ain't got it all figured out

DIGNITY

We call our Names out loud

Love is the force holds it all together

Simple  appreciation

For the grace of mere existance

As we have found out

DIGNITY

And takes his mother 's hand

Today

Joey's dead

we stumble on

we wander far

we are the salt of the earth
we the dedicated lovers

we who love
and take
what is needed

we stumble on
before the lazy lovers

who talk and talk

taking the beauty from the earth
bearing children for school

ancient the sacrifices
many the kinds of sacrifices

ancient the wisdom
which lasts

we stumble on
before the cold cruelty..
..............

to the mountains
where we
turn around

the phony falling of towers and tears

the hypothetical caring for something
so definable but undefined

the LOVE of LIFE!!!!

("WHAT'S THAT?"....we say

day by slippin-away day)

the need of some form of
heroic.....moaning

some demon
some monstrosity

some "skirt" to hide behind
a sort of collective farcial taking
of responsibility

the facts sit "in our face"

from these we turn away

and pretend our herd is real

and that it is truly some LOVE
we feel

(at least so we claim)

but it seems so lame
because it is so lame

"here" is real bad

let's go "there"

there is a lotta ****** 'round here
a lotta faux enemies

(how we **** eachother so !)

••

Will SOMEONE please be one with god



It's not so hard to figure it all out you know

:::::::

Lonliness

//

What a ******* stupid way for a world to die

••

God ain't goin down with the ship

Neither am I

And such a one as you too have come

Such a one

••

Sweet as the taste of anything at all after all is said and done

And life itself is here and we see the reasons for our fear and overcome

••

The child with her razor blade realizes

Demons do invade any holy sanctuary left open

And they know

What they must know

To live

••

Sweet the silence voices

Sing of holy

Sing of real

Sing of us

••

She walks naked solitary

Fields where magic is the only answer

And my face is the only beauty

••

The only reason

••

Walks naked high school corridors laughing  at the folly

••

The pumpin pimpin brutal ways the tryin to get their jollies

Before dyin
Without even tryin

To live

••

No reason to ask me to forgive

I am invincible

As you are

As always

And I told you

They were coming

And lo!
Look!

Here they are!

!!

AND STILL YOU DO NOT SEE!

••

It is NOT because of greed

It is NOT because of lack of love

••

WE ARE BEING TAKEN DOWN BY ALIEN FORCES!

-----

(Can't you see!---------I told you they were coming!

Now they are here!

!!!!

(How else could it be happening?

How to explain the sudden surge

Of weapons and technology?)

NO OTHER!

••

We must unite and resist!

Isn't it obvious?

••

You have actually been trained

To cut yourselves with razor blades and to think its cool!

IT AIN'T!

So?--------//////----I am led to assume you have been

taken over by Alien Entities!

••

YOU HAVE!

••

Cease your purile  Denial

MEDITATE

RETAKE YOUR BODY

RETAKE YOUR WORLD
