The Radical Religious

Like chickens they sit on a roost in the dark
With their toes holding tight to the perch
They feel safe in the night ‘gainst their neighbor beside
If the neighbor not jiggle nor lurch

For those who have the price to pay
And I have a tale
To leave here if I pass away
This journal will speak
To the journey I now shall take
From life here so bleak

Witness the decline of the American Dream, 
a demise right on time. “

our blind rage for insane things.

Where an old coyote stops and lingers 
As he seems to wonder where and why

Gang awa frae tha Glen
Tae a fearsome place;

SILENCE

When you sit back in silence, and think, it won’t be me.
That’s what you’ll remember, when you’re no longer free.
Moments, they have come and gone, when you’ve just turned away.

The Flame of Love then grows,
As within our hearts, the Light of

The aromas born of Love in whole
And once our heart's...

We are living in times of great unrest.
Which will put our metal to the test.
Whether left or right, right or wrong.

Brand new eyes to see the world

Pretty soon I’m gonna freeze...

When you feel, you’ve had enough,
And lack the will to fight.

When everything you seem to do,
Has no affect at all.
When you’re really at rock bottom,
And there’s...

“You”

So you break 
and the life of you
falls through 
the cracks in 
the floor

you become
invisible to all
just like a ghost
walking through
walls 

silently

and the softness 
that ethereal core
apple seed 
hidden in...

Aggravated by worthless pieces of scum that I struggle
Getting off of my shoes. A nasty glare, a hostile retort,
