we aren’t quite sure why
the what and the how are clear
but the essence of propulsion
the driving force
is locked in boxes in boxes in boxed in code
we have spent long nights in electric parlors
designing philosophies of pinpoint accuracy
anthropological physics drawing x&y equations
burning calories in conversational warfare
intellectual mechanics
churning
hopping
bopping
expelling ticker tape in ancient swirling symbols
the attempts of the few free minds
the psyches unchained, unhindered
the original mint condition cadillac of mentality
resorting to guessing games and scavenger hunts
all in the attempt to unearth the source of your madness
you are a plague, a pestilence, the fall of emotional economics
a brush fire among the dry mesquite of walking talking clowns
is there a new disease unleashed
and you without an umbrella or vaccine
or is it a poison, radiation seeping
into the water flowing into your veins
a green, nuclear sludge from bullets and bombs
the idea of demonic possession almost valid
to those pragmatist toting atheist philosophies
your magnitude can make the devil appear
your evil wicked cruelty makes demons cringe
is it the ghost of ancient cultures and dinosaurs extinct
haunting the halls in your mind, howling and scratching
did they forget your shiny new toy in your happy meal
you and yours, kindred souls nestled in hate
created by the capture and drowning of angels
the most dangerous of all monsters
has a dazzling smile, loving eyes, grey hair
whispering hippie rhetoric
bringing in those poor saps who signed up for self sacrifice
your love of baked goods, cookies and grandchildren
your love of seeing the full explosion of pain and eruption of tears
the salty drops you collect in bottles living in the spice rack
bedazzling and beading injustice, degradation, cruelty and threats
your gaggle of witches and your coven of bitches
spreading nightmares and progressive famine
the clown with the red lips and the dumpy hips in the lead
the unassuming whispering nymph of poetry and pen
sporting the used pastel floral print dresses and bongs
because smoking weed and hemingway are the true blue
the new call of your battle
acapella escaping tiny mouths
belting out voices
saying the lines you placed in tiny brains
your club of unreasonable hatred and destruction
gluten free brunch for faux feminists
the flaunting of a new brand of cruel
call it surreal and fools fork over payola
there are those who see your clothed hatred
the time for unveiling has arrived with the mail
and you the hateful, the liars, the pretenders
you have been exposed and highlighted
the triple divinity with las vegas personas
the plastic skin bubbling and dripping off
exposing the suffering and loathing gooey middle
but your darkness cannot block the light
the moon still hangs bright in the night
friendship, comradery, an end to loneliness
are dazzling jewels of hope out of your reach
so do your dance
shake and jive
swing those hips
speak your hypnotic bullshit and flash the dentures bright
you the lying clan of agitators, the red wine stain of spite
