"lookup" poems
god is the devil and the devil is bob
god is the devil and the devil is bob
god is the devil and the devil is bob
GOD THE DEVIL AND BOB
today, bob was trying to help 3 people who looks up and around
and the first man tom’s case, it was the fascination with neon lights
this made his head spin around and around, and it wasn’t the usual
headspinning that every adult faces from time to time, it was psychotic
this really bugged tom, and bob said, could this be god annoying you
and tom said, dunno mate and went away singing
god is the devil and the devil is the force moving my head cosmically
god is the devil and the devil is the force moving my head cosmically
god is the devil and the devil is the force moving my head cosmically
GOD THE DEVIL AND BOB WHO IS THE FORCE
The 2nd bloke was harry and when he looked up, it was more weird than tom’s
you see he would look up at the sky saying, take me now, almighty GOD
and bob said have you thought about being positive rather than talking about death
and harry said, shut up, life isn’t working for me, how i would hope, so shut up
if you tell me to live my fucken life, I CAN’T STAND YA
and harry went away singing
god is the devil and death sounds nice
god is the devil and death sounds nice
god is the devil and death sounds nice
GOD THE DEVIL AND THE MIGHTY DEATH TONES
and our final bloke was brian, who was told, he has a looking up disorder, which was so queer
he could have a brain tumor, and brian’s mate suggested that brian goes to have a brainscan
to see if there is any abnormalities in his brain , which could be causing the look ups
and like tom, it was a fascination with neon signs, brian wanted a medication to get rid of the look ups
so he can PARTY, and get rid of this crazy person lookup disorder and bob said it could be the buddhist
god (buddha)or it could be athena working on brian’s brain, it could be the dreaded force, where you are forced
to show abnormalities in the brain, brian went away saying perhaps that is true, and sang
god is the devil and the devil is the look ups
god is the devil and the devil is the look ups
god is the devil and the devil is the look ups
god the devil, and bob,
the almighty bob delahunty

lookup
in the sky
is it a bird
no
is it a plane
indeed
it is
a
paper wasp
with
polka dot wings

When we can understand
after we consume too much
everything you no longer need
or we don't have to know –
technology that drives us all the crazier,
lovers who end up hating each other,
fictional romance stories and idol figures,
forest destruction, environmental pollution,
riots, the roar of caged animals;
I saw the news of an elephant calf
reported to have died
with an entangled trunk
his eyes lookup
into our minds,
increasingly miserable workers
for a small fee,
the state moves people like pawns;
beautiful and charming thief,
elegant wife and luxury
overcrowded prison,
slum dweller,
unemployment,
and a man old enough to love graves.
These things, and more, in content
shows life swinging on a rotten axis.
But they left a little hope
to drown out a little mess
or intentionally making noise
on the show, we have to pay for ourselves every day,
in the smartphone screen.
A flying bird
and around the roof of the house
as a symbol of death
against human conscience,
above he shouted,
“Love me again!”
such as vehicles and pollution
who came on time,
and the city awaits them.
On the shop front,
water runs high,
people laughing happily
and the flowers wither away
in rainy season
who came again.
Is there any form of sadness
other than things that are no longer useful,
for those of us who are speechless?

maybe someday
we'll find each other
making wishes
and counting stars
when we lookup
watching the moon
maybe we'll see one another
with all our flaws
all our scars
all our broken promises
all our fears
maybe someday
we'll find each other
making wishes
and counting stars
i love you for who you are
there's no where else i'd rather be
than in your arms

Standing overlooking nothing
With nothing before me
Everything within my fingertips
Everything I built
Everything I worked for
Standing on the precipe of meaning
And indifference
I miss you
And I wish I had more memories
But it's mostly a blur
Merry christmas
Bah humbug
I lookup at your planes
Your legacy
And me
I meant to get your recipes
It's too late
I will keep going

Lookup up to the sky
A single raindrop invades your eye
You blink away the swell
As you let in the devil
She begins to eat your flesh
You bones withstand the test
“Must be a dream”
Your lips open to scream
Another drop, another devil
Scream and run and flail
Your skin becomes thirsty, pale
Pray to your god, ask for help
Surely he’s there
He’s the only one to save you
Grab onto the rod
Drop to your knees
Pay all the necessary fees
You’ll certainly be fine
Tonight the devils dine

I have this mountain to climb
It's a rocky relationship
I keep trying hopefully to lookup
I descend
It's a repeated downwards slope
You know that I will always love you
This winding path you taking is directionless
It's a dark road, devoid of light
You keep throwing punches at the world
Your emotions must be in a constant fight.
Open your eyes
Please don't ever lose sight
the biblical morals I instilled in you
It should be glowing and shining bright
It's supposed to be infinite
I first-hand know life's not easy
It will always be an endless plight
I was truly hoping you would never lose your innocence
This was a lying might
You growing up
The choices in life will become more
I'm left praying daily for you
Hoping you always choose the option that is right.
I will always be here
Whenever your heart cannot find
The love that is needed
To keep the darkness within you aligned

I hear it was the whistling towards a white woman,
that got you killed, face beaten in like a castrated mummy.
They stopped you because they did not want to take the blame.
Oh! how they killed you because they hated themselves,
used a lie to send you to your grave in the most horrible way.
Blood stains the Coliseum doors.
Now history repeats, everyone getting killed like Till.
Dead Black bodies dropping down on the streets.
Shout all of their names 3 times! They were innocent Black people, but 5-0 thought otherwise.
Police took away precious black lives of men, women, and children.
I know I’m guilty of it too, but not like them.
Stop the killing! Stop the racism! Freeze!
Black people are no longer enslaved,
We no longer wear those chains just to be painted gold.
Now once upon a time not too long ago,
A ***** like myself had to strong arm a ***
Hold your golden-black crown high
Black woman
Black woman
What do you see when you look in the mirror?
Do you see the strength
and heart of the warrior Afrekete?
Is your head held up high,
for a crown to rest?
And be dubbed black queen,
mother of life, educator of black intelligence
Do you see your dark skin as it dances
and befriends the night,
kisses the sun and
absorbs black power day in and day out?
Do you see those wide hips, big bust,
big **** and big lips?
Never will you say that those precious gifts
from descendant Saartjie Baartman are a curse.
Black woman
Black woman
what do you see when you look at you
Lookup!
Lookup I say.
See that melanin on fleek,
that no one would dare to compete with.
Black woman do you see us?
Ancestors who stand before you,
behind you and beside you.
Give birth to a Black nation
Do you see that within the mirror?
The blood and shadows of a warrior queen.
Black Lives Matter, I cried
Pull up your pants
They would say
And WE won’t shoot
Black men in 1920’s suits
Left dead or in jail
Black mothers cried, I cried
M.L.K has arisen and died
