We hold the many reins
-mmm hmm
We hold reign
-oh yes
We’ve held the rain
-More!

No good comes out of me with elongated periods of thought
I think with the plight of the pessimist
I do what I ought not
I become repulsive
Tonic
Hygienic
*****
Strangely ironic
Unlawfully rude
Thought of periods elongated with me of out comes good
no, Monsters

How far away was eventually
How long before I became we
If I had to guess I would have to say
That today was a day to let be

I accumulated ways to ignore people
I collected bits that could make people laugh
I could impress but never could address change
I never massed up the nerve or my wrath

I’ll sit and plan my future days
I’ll lie down and think about before
I’ll mark up and schedule our parted ways
But I’ll always think that I could have done more

Humans are guttural
Glued and cruel
Natural savage
A religious mule
A finger with reason
A bark and a bite
With theological treason
Your wrong is my right

Unzip the Earth
And there, you have Mars
Squash the feat on sight
And extinguish all records of ours
“It’s not worth the time and the hassle”
The vagrants cried and started to shout
“I’m sure one way or another-
It will figure itself out”

An ill-motioned groove drowned me, driving
Like the sick puppy I am, halfway out of my car window
Eyes starving, high and unorthodox
The foliage watched
Each sapling in fact
Covertly whispering to the other
Snide and volatile
“He sure fell out of the nest”
“He must be Mad”
I drove by with a hint of my satiric
Showing my teeth
They were looking back, un-teased

Mundane chatter and VHS tapes
Renaissance iron and tired eyes, awake
Lying on the carpet
Minimalistic sandwich
Lying to the paw print
Cannibalistic light switch
