#conserve
I no longer dare to take a breath, can't provoke me, I won't breathe
Finding it too risky under the pressure of a thousand seas
Plus, you see, I must conserve the air for my self-righteous pleas
To produce more I planted the forest I can't see through the trees
Gods speed please, I've already been brought to my knees
By the artic breeze off a shoulder so cold it threatens to freeze
This house of cards I call a home sheds support beams with ease
From the inception of my very first organic thought
I've been largely ineffective at controlling my plot
Have I earned that first breath I got or not?
Probably not
The gut shot is how obvious it is that everyone at my table agrees

it's a bone dry west
for a cool east summer
i'm steeple chasing baby
from a derby to a dungeon
orange cones on the left
bright beams on a Hummer
i'm flicking off the bird
from nevada to wyoming
get this load off my chest
it burns April like a stoner
i'm a bayou baby
from the streets of magnolia

A ritual
of lust
is my
attitude to
play as
victuals there
subordinate trust
oft hype
where hyperbole
may end
politics of
right and
result in
death as
eco is
new house
with pep.

deep in the woods I slept
birds chirp
gentle rain
misty fog
cool breeze
quiet n merry
sleep of the angels
sleep of the babies
nothin more nothin less
woke up not to the dream
was it the woods ?
birds gone
gentle acid rain
harsh breeze
misty smog
quiet n merry no more
well woods were gone too
with no reason to be awake
bird’s chirp n rain n mist n breeze
was all I took to my dream
sleep was all i had now
sleep was all i had now

here in this land the rain will not fall
the clouds pass us thoughtlessly
we wait and wait for rain endlessly
