Where is the truth?
screamed the heart into the night
Why have you abandoned me?
Maybe it’s to hard to be right
The answers are like flotsam
not caring if they’re found
unresponsive to who I am
but upon my flesh they pound
Wraith slide around the orb
a fluxion of lies pooling on the floor
pinning righteousness to the boards
then sliding into the darkness
not seen forever more.
Bird, why do you sing?
can’t you see I’m not in the mood?
I sing to change it
said the Bird
Why does your tail wag Dog?
can’t you see I’m not happy?
I wag to infect you
said the Dog
Feed the Bird
Pat the Dog
You came with guns and chains
smiles and bright blue sky’s
promises of driving away the rains
all packaged up in lies
You came with guns and chains
with love upon your breath
your firm hand grasped my reins
and led me to my death
