...  ... Oh so very tired

of tryin to be men --

••

Looking for some meaning

In a lover's eye

//

But all the girls are cryin

( crying )

Tryin to be

A FOREVER child

A FOREVER child

///

Ain't no fun anymore

//

Playing  " house "

Going bedroom to bedroom

Going door to door

••

Playin the BROKEN game

Till nobody cares anymore

••

So tired

All alone within the ******* serenade

while the future is here

Just like a boot in the face

//

Get drunk / **** / & go to sleep

Just don't make it anymore

Acting like clowns

Playin house

Until the house burns down

of all the girls I ever did love

////  • ||

###

There is one thing I can say about all of them

//                            

That I loved them because of

The immensity of love they showed for

Everyone / Anyone

Around them

Allowing me to see all people

More compassionately and clearly

//

And that everyone of them

Acutely and thoroughly

Knew this

And appreciated it

With their whole being

For it helped them complete

What was their life 's

Purpose and Journey

••

And though we came and went

( so to speak )

We NEVER parted

And where ever they are

I remember every moment

With

Joy

&

Gratitude

&

Supreme Humility

& I know for certain

That that is how they remember me

all the gods but one are here

doing so very little

but hide our fear
hide our shame

destroy our spirit
rot our soul

but
who cares?

we see we are dying anyway

any eternity will help
to pass the time

til we become

what everyone becomes

AMERICA says

Really ?

So

Why don't we accept the pain that is here

And really live and really love

Instead of filling up the world


With STERILE words of stupid love !

Do you know why you do it !


You know you fool no one

passive eyes

the monumentality of the slaughter
that shall soon take place

amid the loveliness

so pure and saint-like

enjoying

all sense of purposeful sharing
and the child's modesty

and as oftimes we hear eachother say:

"are we really even here-at-all?"

and yet we dare go on

unto the only door worth entering

Broken traces of hopefulness
