Kick everything you know..and kick it into touch It's what you want to do But the question is.. How much? Would you lay waste to words.. ..leave untasted tested fomulae Free the inner creative soul Dig a hole in which to hide..beside me? Fashion sentences from scimitars Cut the ties that bind us up in silken sentiment Use excrement to describe our slide into the bowels of earth.. ..or is that outside your comfort zone? If so.. Then I suggest you stay at home and watch the soaps. Fill your mind with suds...for whatever good that will do. Leave change alone And change will leave you too Stew behind those lacey nets For you all bets are void. But bouyed up by the travesties that weigh down our communities.. ..if you can't fight... ..then Mister....You ain't worth a light. Don't want to call you dim ..but here's the thing With you around..it's hard to get up off the ground. Just stay at home I'll fight the battles on my own..as I have always done.. Not often won. But I don't give a damn..I use my words like a battering ram. It's who I am...it's what I do. Who and what are you?
