The rocks where I live
look like rocks in Gobi.

The rocks where I live
look like rocks in Oman

Dead can dance, Oh
man, did
you know Australia could produce such music?

In 2020, you can tune in to yesterday,

as if you were alive
to hear
the original broadcast, the first ripple

soft-shoe shuffle, brushes on the snare,

we are where we find our
selves shameless at our in no sense,

who knew all this is knowable by mortals

breathing on earth,
as if it were heaven, and laughing at the panic
...
happen stance, a pose you froze in

how everlong ago, it melts at the current rate,

as the carbon balance shifts to manifest,
from reserve
to burn.

Kinetic pre-servants, now friends, light up

to the cognosticaters of everjoy as a given,

for the taking, receive it, take it,
my peace I give,
no price t' pay,
nay, I'make m'own. Some time it boils over.
Been doin' so some time now, since how seemed

so easy, and easy seemed to make peace easier to make,

to my mind, as I looked into the Narcissist's pool and saw you,

laughing at my grin and my wink.

Fear is what brings us together on these hard days,
with this virus going about and showing everyone the true colours
with how this virus is spreading,
destroying families.

This fear we have is irrational,
but we know no better due to the facts of the media that gives us.
They think that telling us and lying to us is the best bet,
giving us false information.

Fear is something that does help us in these times,
but it also consumes us with greed.

Only helping yourself, and no one else,
thinking that this is the way to do it,
thinking that selling necessities at higher costs
is the right thing to do?

Fear is something we cannot give into,
especially in times like this.
