You're a queer bird.
Isn't life absurd.
Fly high
above the herd.
Love is
waiting in the rain
and naming each water drop
to pass the time.
Love is
coming home
and feeling safe
like you don’t feel any other place.
Love is
walking on air
and not giving a care
people seeing you a foot off the ground.
Love is
calling someone honey
and not feeling
self conscious about it.
Love is
eating ice cream in winter,
and eating a roast
in the summer heat.
Love is
playful.
Love is
painful.
Love is
never having to say sorry,
but saying it anyway
without giving it a thought.
Love is
a Sunday dinner.
Your warm hand in mind.
Watching the sky change to night.
Love is
only having eyes for the sweet ugly boy,
and thinking he is the most
handsome man in the world.
Love is
the passing of time,
and not knowing
where the years went.
Love is
looking back
and not wanting
to change a moment.
The people are angry
because the conservative politicians
transferred all the money
to the richest people in town.
And all the gains got,
after surfs and feudal lords,
were apparently lost.
History wiped away.
So, what do the people
do with their anger?
They focus it into
angry groups, an angry world.
And the best angry groups
are the fascists and the racists
where the people can be angry
without any fear.
The rich don't care anyway
because they never cared anyway,
so, then the people are angry
with the people not like them.
And this group fights that group,
the children watch it and learn hate,
while the rich build bigger walls,
as it has nothing to do with them.
And the true irony is,
that the people still want to be the rich,
they aspire to be just like them,
forgiving them for everything they've done.
Thank god, or whatever spirituality
has conned you into believing,
that what was meant to be will be,
everything happens for a reason.
But you don't want to be the poor poor,
thank the universe we're not the poor poor,
we wouldn't want to be them no way,
and we can't help them anyway.
Wake up, Sunday Morning.
What have we done
I immediately think?
What did they do
I correct myself?
What happens now?
Electing a political party
that has no policies,
and no heart,
just the love of the dollar,
and themselves.
and their ideology.
They love their ideology
above everything else!
It is coal, they say,
to make the lights work.
Fuck the planet,
climate change is crap.
And stuff the poor,
they are not us,
after all.
