How do we cut the head off these beast?
Obviously we are uninvited to the corporate feast.
Those who do the bidding
of money and war,
fulfilling the prophecy
of the mighty *****.
Running from the thunder
hiding in the trees,
superstitious people
killing as they please.
How do we cut the heads
off these beasts?

I don't know what I was looking for,
in the honey draped lights flashing
in my eyes
And the sound of music
that keeps on playing and playing

And the wind that laps over my face
as the world turns,
Like horses running on axis,
weaving through the lines of shadow
and fireworks
And in their trail, I found
stardust that shimmers and shimmers

I found it confusing sometimes
In the endless mirrors and lights
that spirals in my mind
Like vines coiled around poles

And the looming sweetness that lingers,
like pink foam swirling in my mouth

I smiled towards the dying sunset,
thinking it would last forever
I try not to close my eyes
and not be blinded
by the world slowly slipping
away

Before the music dies
Before the yellow stars burn out
You might not hear my voice
or even remember my name
But I just want you to know that

I was here

The body remembers what the mind buries.
A hand raised too quickly,
And my bones brace for impact.
A voice too sharp,
And my lungs forget how to breathe.
The past is not behind me.
It lives in the way my body flinches
At things that aren’t there.
