I'm so distraught.

Maybe I'm okay.
But maybe not....

White JesusThroughout my whole life,
I was taught a white Jesus
Would be my savior.

In a land of a people
Who have darker skin.

which every Sunday morning
I claim to worship?...

Put a Light in that AtticThere's a space with no light.
So much crammed up there!
Wonderful treasures in the front,
Trash in behind.
Images and memories all muddled together.
Loads of ideas and half thought out plans
scattered all over the place.

Dreamer, Look At RealityDreamer, look at reality...
put all dreams away;

Consisting of precious milliseconds,
Precise calculations and brutal muscle power.

Without the reports, the flags, the anthems, the politics of international...

Cantelopes Can't Elope
I've heard that cantaloupes can't elope
It's against their moral code
And rhubarbs are NOT allowed to argue
Lettuce entertain you
I've heard that people sometimes turnip and pea
Not a very classy bunch I must say!
