#incubation
The disgusting drink is working clouds of patchouli lift me up and my cloak is left behind Hypnotised, caressed by downy hair of sheep's wool I dream of floating heavily up to dancing hands and it doesn't bother me what thoughts of lust you secretly smear over my skin You may watch, even touch me where it is not allowed I am safe in the bubble of confidence that I have blown around my nerves

Escapade
Ramshackled dream Held together with glue and string And prayers Floating as a feather Yet easily the heaviest of things What tapestries you inspire Yet not strong enough the exit my mind Keeping you hidden Incubating long term Until you’re almost over cooked Make I take a glimpse of you Never to touch, in fear of the break Complexly understated A warming flame Flickering in this empty cold world Ramshackled dream Pretty to most, breathtaking to me Sitting ever fervent Waiting to shine Wait to breathe the air

Ramshackled Dream
Ebola, coming from the Continent of our roots The WHO is exhausted by your contagion Nurses are leaving their posts, doctors are dying What can contain exponential growth? Not the money and debts of this bankrupt America We print more money and expect The world to stay the same, but it won’t Not after you Ebola, a profit mechanism Vaccines, for each strain and mutation? Ebola, your incubation period is too long Your death-conformity is too high How can you possibly be natural? Man-made, racially biased, targeting The weak, the poor, the masses Ebola, a colonial rampage in your DNA I call your bluff, genocide, Genocide! Obama doesn’t mind Ebola, flights stay open New epicenters for outbreaks arrive The pundits say it’s already too late Fluids or air-droplets, both, who is to say? The CDC seems strangely apathetic The UN is oddly apologetic Ebola, are you ready to decimate The white man, as you have the black?
