Sonic Coma
The ocean below screams in public
Sleeping behind ear-splitting applause
Anger, anger, with peaceful thoughts
And actions, actions, I don’t know
The man they call monkey face knows
With explosions surrounding every
Move he makes
Crying in the darkness with sunrise
His only hope
Dewey asked me do you always smile in public?
Yes I replied sunshine warms the world
