Taxes Tea Postmodern

get a job 
get a wife 
and a cheap PC
 things 
to survive postmodern strife
living in a world after LSD 
the world so deranged
I've come to get my diagnosis 
so they can capitalize on my illnesss
and all the things I'd rather be
in this state slavery's cheep
a world so deranged 
how dose it sleep
where's my money Mr. tax man 
the idiot king is fat
and his teeth are black
so let his cream of Texas float 
and darken all the oceans
so I can drive to work

Wise Old Goat

wise old goat on the moutain
refuses his will to bend
his strength undaunted
his power wild
trespass not upon him

Artemis

she travels like a silver mirror
across the midnight sky
her lights play hid and seek
within the foggy forest pines
the rotten stumps do seem to swoon
as crickets present to her their tunes
and blackbirds worship as she passes
down behind the mountain grove

To a Special Lady

you brighten me in every way 
and things are looking up 
like an ant in sweet sauce 
you have captured me in bliss
now in rapture I stick to you 
and take you to my lips

Hidden Children

we step into the twilight
within a hedge between
we step without a sound 
upon ancient ground

a star barer burning bright 
in each of us is known 
we are the Hidden Children
of the sacred grove

we mumble in our sleep
drooling in a heap
dancing are our spirits free

a star barer burning bright 
in each of us is known
we are the Hidden Children
of the sacred grove

the goat footed wild man 
plays an endless song 
we dance and stammer wildly
until our deaths we stop

a star barer burning bright 
in each of us is known 
we are the Hidden Children
of the sacred grove

Release

the faith of a musterd seed
findly took hold
grabed me
pulled me in a surging shock cruent 
I felt it 
I could not release it 
so overwelming 
the sharp imiges
vioces from above and below
white light chaseing my crown like a throbing train
the fire weald up inside me
and my noes began to bleed 
I saw truth as it was
each lie as a lie 
my demons all lined up
crying for my retrun
beging and persuading my down fall
with a beam of light 
they disapaired

My Own Trip

there is pimp for every trip 
and an idot to follow 
so what's your path foolish one 
mine is hollow
I desolve
I depart 
I disecesoiate
god has a name
the one I give him
god has a face 
my own

Confusing Love

you pick me up
and draw me closer 
I feel good 
you push me away 
you draw me near 
then you hate me 
what's a boy to do
you love me 
and you tease me 
you stun me
then you frees me
I love you 
pleas don't grease me
why make me feel this way

Deamoniac Love

I'm in this 
in this now
love from a demon 
a succubus
how she likes to knot
that rope around my neck
pulls me tight
for a kiss 
and a bite
I'm in it now
and I start to cry 
oh demon lover 
how my teeth gnash
she makes me live 
to suffer this
her nails in my flesh
I'm in it now 
and welcome death

Untitled

chose poison wisely 

what you put in the body 

what you allow in the mind

labeling pysician micro mind 

drains the will out of living

and even dying becomes redundant

Mr p. doc. cash box plenty

insruance and foot ball

taxing his dollers away 

I have no sympathy

for such devils

to the pits with them 

and their mediocre dreams
