I See Them Everywhere
I could see stars everywhere, 
In every foggy corner, 
In the twinkling of their eyes
The exchange of goods, services, money
Some grateful and well-intentioned, others listless
Cold and accusatory 
Selfish and scared
I saw their lights come and...

A lotta' people ask me about what that means,
to be a Taoist.

or even everything?
You must...

Bonkers maybe
And I told God I was sorry for thinking I was thee

Their philosophers dehumanized our ancestors.
 Their missionaries demonized their humanity.
 Their merchants made them chattel.
 Whippings, rapes, amputations,
 For the training of wild negroes who can be forced to work at will.

Can you testify truly 
without a hit?
That it is as strong as it

I put my lips to his cheek 
Reminded me of winter time, not ice cold

I Will Not Be Late To Work This Morning
I will not be late to work today

I will get there on time
I will brush my teeth
Without singing songs
Without thinking about birthdays
About gymnasiums
About TAKS 
About sound
About war
Republicans
Democrats
Independents

I will get there on time
I will eat my...

Paving his way through by lanes

They'd rather keep their heart to themselves than have it crushed
