An Answer For All, Part 1

Take leave of this Veneer of contented containment Go tell your thoughts Delineate the shades of Dusk and the dark Beneath the ashes sleep Never renews this life Little lived over and Out like a wick Talk takes the teacher Like a bishop To a castled king Every dog has his Day to be dinner This cat brings change In pockets and spades To end topside under Save for the hoarders Would never come clean Taken on winged whimsy Spirited by Whippoorwill whispers The embodied evanescent manifest Who will we be If not our past? My veto to open Wounds which speak softly Ask water for warmth And be blue brother This synergistic system swims The sun’s waves unaware Our staple star unsurpassed Suits in summer sweat Cares with shares shift Snow smarts the smile Forget the global goal In green smoke screen Flower followers find bipeds Take form like frogs Business positions the tenured The problem of power Byproduct of professional profit Please contact pink pig For your pension pending Glycerin unit vesting schedule Fabricated and economy dressed To eat your supper Triangulate solution in vibrations Sew me sound anew Blessed songs self orient Find joy in organization By collaborative competition clout Comes together they think Through this conveyance compute Corporate costs of copy The tiny minds till Their tares of cracked Cash creates crossed functions Yeomen wish for work The biggest as best Cycle while you winter Here until your dreams Tell you how to Find rest in conflux Cubed days make mockery Of our false freedom The office of night Abate anathema gluttonous worm Is light like knowledge? Copulate nothing she says Keep a bed about See the ritual repeated Growing gives the go For rockets to assail The reign of secret silence Push past these principalities A planetary pull Possessing The answer for all Beggaring questions more able As balloons held aloof With room for rain Safety beneath a roof Bowing before promise paramount
