forensic apocylpse

 

 

Anarchy is a time honored tradition
past down threw unraveled
loose leaf notebook paper
it starts as an idea
and ends in a movement
the action that changes
everything
freedom of thought
the power of choice
and the ability of one man
The Dali Lama is trading
in his robes for blue jeans
as the economy in America
commits suicide
we will be in need
of spiritual healing
we [...]

uncle.

There are times, times like this, when you sit here and think about how time is slipping through your fingers. Now I want you to sit here and think about all those folks who went out and lived life to the fullest, grabbing the bull by the horns then tossing it to the side knowing [...]

So we stand at the epoch
of our eternal need
of some sort of spiritual

branches or low water
some became water logged
and drown
but that is what that town will do
it eats you up and digest you
or spits [...]

this is what it was not

 
it was the time when all time was halted
short stops in short stacks in Cincinnati
the midnight train rides on with a fever
Nashville might remember these times

but some of us might never achieve that dream
and I feel sad for them , all of them
all those who couldn’t stand
when told to sit [...]
