(wiser We Fall) My 401 K Plan
Wiser we fall
the better we crawl
on all fours
back to the doggie style
of being humped over casually
Left like an Indian burial
Far away from the tribe
with pastel reds and nature green
My war paint is melting
Under Thunder lightning will
Strike out three times
Past oblivion into denial
A melancholy town with a rebel to cause
Destruction into their unseen wrecking ball
Restruction re-build into concrete hearts
and steel hands
Attacked to attack
No one be safe from themselves
but even darker are the people
Knit sweaters and cool lemonade
To Pop-cicles and Kool-aid
The trade for self is undeniably
An income earner
Yes, we all must sell ourselves
To invest in this economy
Labled society
