when Lucy in the sky

she made the Seducer look cool
he picked up a guitar and sang his guts out
so we could worship any fool
so we could spend our time at his pleasure
let the uncontrollable bunnies out
and judge one another with envious measure
so we could follow any fancy
and turn our lives into an idol bazaar
sleepwalking through the golden age
of the devil's experiment
of the blind breeding and leading blind
of the delusional bruising the Word
of the greedy selling our future tense
the lustful destroying our common sense
and the perverts demonizing innocence
while the world applauds

will you hear a wake up call
if you traded your conscience for a fashion sense?
will a blackmailer save you from the law?
will an extortioner balance your books?
will a perjurer write your story?
how will you change your shame into glory
when a spoiled brat sits on the highest high chair
and there is no reason or hope in this affair
there is only i want what i want what i want
and i have my gold my guns and my gang
so my tantrums are the law of the land

it could never be darker than that
when the jokers are the ones
who hold the kingdom's light
and when the King comes back
whom will He find faithful to His word?
the poor, the kids who believe
the cheated, the wounded, the hurt
the falsely accused, the persecuted
the sick and elderly deprived of care
the orphans, the widows, the whole fold
and some kicked around immigrants
with enough hope for the whole world

long stormy night

 one mississippi ...a bitter star is falling down... two mississippi ...I argued with the devil and i won... three mississippi ...and when trees don't anymore let the violins speak to me... kaboom! familiarity with falsehood is not a stairway to heaven your head may look as fine as gold but your feet are made of clay nothing but dust under the power of the Rock that fills the earth how will you not fall? you are but a murder of crows meticulously glued into a grandiose idol by the promise of fame within the will-less bundles of muscles in the network of shame blinded by the unpromised luxury heights inflamed by the gluey years of resentment of rejected lovers beggars of love, however misunderstood and their idols of age defiance and lust downgraded by the glowing rectangles with their images of envy betrayed by the happily hand-clapping crowds of fake jesuses and fake madonnas by neurotic parents of monkeys evolving into crafty profit maker...

iron-y

why burn the bridge? so that no wounded birds could live under it to keep their wounds alive your irony is like sulfur “no” is a burning word takes the iron rod giver to say it right they undo every right and fight for every wrong like that recalled letter of apology drop-dead bird mockingly unsent ungone, unknowing of its power ironic like dried sunflower on a blue chalkboard the art of death reigns in their hearts there is only defiance of dessicated flowers  between acknowledgment of rain  given in the right season and the first hydrating sip of life as it were to be fractions matter, splits of seconds are life ages of stubborn magma buildup can crumble in a blink of an eye, when you see how many grand personas brake down between saying thank you and being grateful always

don't pray for me

when the thieves pray for more loot, who can hear them? in heaven or in hell? let the wind know, let the wind know if you forget your name the wind will still blow your thoughts away when the whores pray for more wages, who can hear them? whose job is it to care? in heaven or in hell? let the clouds know, let the clouds know if you forget your name the rain will wet your hair anyway please, love me not the teddy bears and dolls are all asleep now this factory of dreams is a delusion there is no path through the house of terrors the neon signs were all lying tell me what pay is worth playing a nameless agent a role with so many angry lines in a play called "I wish I were rich" befriended and adored only by the three-headed snake of familiar spirit? [weeping is heard in the clouds but the streets are dry] please, love me not when the hands tired of work and hearts hardened by adversity rise in thanksgiving prayer why is the snake still speak...
