Roadlyness

.
Darting and running


Sun is setting

Roads stretch

Trucks wave

We are all the white lines slave

Doing its bidding

Go here

Drive there

Slower faster

Lanes end

Lanes split

Interstate

Service road

Red blue white accrue

Cops with guns

Shooting their invisible Speedo rays

Ignoring the dieing and crying

To eat their donuts, issuing their mindless tickets to the innocent and normal



Trucks moving as a swift heard of Caribou

Leaving their trail of tire excrement to mark the road as theirs.

See rock city?

See ruby falls?

Crystal’s 20 burgers for $2

LET’S EAT!

Hidden

.



I have hidden all that I was


For years so many

Fearing that I would be hated

As it always was

And in hiding

I perpetuated the hate

So now I hide the perpetuation

A hidden secret in hiding

And in this too was the hate perpetuated

So now I am well hidden

So far from all human contact

Unable to get back through the labyrinth of secrets and hiding

Lying to hide

Hiding to lie





A child was formed into a killer of men

And a man was killed by the child within



One to give

One to take

One to lead them

One to feed upon them.



I long for life and bring down destruction

Ringing the bells,

Signaling the war



Peace will come

In due time

And my soul will rest

Knowing that all will be well

All will be well



So now we assault

The lies and the hidden

To free the trapped

Of their own ignorance



And some day, some way

The freed will be me.

Sea of forgedaboutit

I sit


And I listen

To mindless raves

And thoughtless comment

I make my point

Which is none effect

I explain the day

Their eyes just glaze

I wish for wisdom

They wish for pudding

I say here it is

They say no, there it was

I explain and wait and fill with anger

They say I should not be evil

I pray for God to deliver me from stupid

They pray for God to deliver them some mail





I had compassion and care for their lives

But man o man they are as to and of cattle

They run off a cliff

Mindless and confused

And they want me to join they in there self-righteous suicide of stupid

NO

GO AWAY
