BOOP!!
Ten thousand pieces
and the world moves on
windshield glass
along the highway
and I ride and ride hard
wind upon my face
and he lays there dead next to me
and I drive and drive hard
across the river
and into the front steps of the capitol
crashing over
and
boop!
a body flew to the left
and
boop!
a body flew to the right
and
boop!
heavy man all over my hood
I am definitely misunderstood
Boop
The dead man told me to ride and I rode hard
through the lawn
and knocked all the pawns
uncovered the FMLA rights on the wall
broken the urinals in the bathroom stalls
I shot the conventional sheriff with frustration
tired of begging
tired of running
tired of waiting
Boop!
The wall of Jericho will fall!!!

Take Me To Where I Grow
I climb to there
where here is nowhere
and I is home
and you stretch your hands
to meet me
to pull me
there.
I climb to there
where you are somewhere
and inspire
native dance around fire
like trees prancing
swaying I lean
and sway to you
What is this power?
this fire?
purple and light blue flames
I am lost and found
and I spin round and round
lost in your words
eyes green then yellow
your sound
your sweat
your beat
every step
Thunder and spiders
no more..
I love you.
