Just Alive, Now that ain't truthful

Just Alive
Days and a single day with clerical error
A day without document
Is a day of life lost
A loss of life

Sum total of hours over budget equates
Total equality of sums lost

Hiding the bodies and mass casualties in a degenerative able body database issued ebt yet no cash aid in Ventura county save liability non profit finance catch it's documents and wage increase hedging against criminology citation of law reference


Injunctive relief from obstruction
Obstruction which infers appointment 
of duty by collection of all donations in
withdrawal of surplus creating
 obstacles in speech


Objective delivery has skewed
From addressed in the past tense

To tensing another's perception 

Hear in announcement from origin 
intent of guilt

No oath or path forward in dialogued 
reference is acquittable.

Welcome to The Book of Job
This is where I live

Welcome to Compton
Half a King Kunta
McDonald's coffee sandwich and potatoe in to work

When the hurt is over
Oh when all the pain is gone 
Maybe love 
Maybe love will
Grow again

For now
Taylor

I moved your picture, from my wall
And I replaced them baby
Both large and small
And each new day
Baby finds me so blue
But nothing
Knowing nothing
Takes the places used
I reach a cross as letters
And our father
Will only sound better
When Eva Green gets it together 
And stops bringing mistakes in shame
