God's Funeral






We carry the bodies
Stack them to the sky
I hope we get higher
I’m higher than high

Making a mountain
Collecting the bones
I’m loosing all feeling
Slaves work in droves

Draining the wine
Life’s intoxicating river
We are trying to get higher
From the blood from the sinners

In the name of man
We trample the poor
Pushed to the margins
Material whores

We publish the truth
And ignore all the lies
We are getting higher
Higher than High

Scoff at the intellect
Piss on your reason
Why are you thinking?
True acts of treason

I vomit crude in the forest
As I chop down the trees
I need a bonfire
To burn our disease

The sores are sickening
Only seen without wealth
I don’t see any body
I only need myself

Come to the valley
Climb up the mountain
No more bodies to bury
No more blood in the fountains

Carry my rifle
Bring the holy text
Only I can interpret
This political sex

Don’t worry its all normal
Don’t you be shy
It will all be history
His story not mine

The tree is uprooted
Buried upside down
This mountain of martyrs
With me as its crown

King of the earth
I will march into heaven
I buried my friends
To make my bread leaven

I stepped on the face
On the hearts
and the hands
Of the mothers
fathers and children
That once walked this land

I’m going to God
To glory and love
Don’t worry how I got there
Because I’m the only one

As I ascend to heaven
I questioned my way
But no one stays on track
Without others losing the way

I’m here at the gates
Looking onto the throne
But there are no angels
Ghosts, Jinn’s or stones

I cried for God
Sure he would appear
I cried again
Maybe she didn’t hear

In the fog of the clouds
And the mist of the sky
I thought it was raining
No just tears in my eyes

I looked down on the mountain
And what did I see
The face of God looking up at me

I killed the lamb and slaughtered
My sons, ending the lives of the ones that I loved

I killed God,
and all his prophets
I killed my neighbors
to gain new stock tips

I killed the others,
Whose looks I despised
I kill many mothers
With wandering eyes

I died a thousand times
And a thousand over
But with no God in heaven
And no angels on my shoulders

I was alone with my gold
And my lies and my book
Alone with my hands and the bloody brook

I was alone with my truth
And alone with my deeds
My murdered family
And my uprooted tree

Make this my last...

I
dance
without thinking
always moving
the essence
of passion
of care
love
and charisma

how I stumble
in thought

and careless
with words

lift me to the sky
without hesitation
I need peace
Still I move
hypnotized
I am truth
and the lie
maybe fools
are enticed by me
knowing that one day
they will become old
and I will move on
and stay the same

how frightening
and honest
there is only one promise

carry your will
sing for me
move for love
and I will play
on and on
change your steps
I will sing for you
and follow

a dance is peculiar
and is every thing artistic
but never controlled
or contained by art
in one breath

we are together
and apart

be swept up
carry me softly
I will lie on your shoulders
like a silk scarf
caught in the wind

beauty is in the eye
love is in the heart
truth is in the world
music is universal
finish this dance with me
for we have already begun
will you?

My Beloved

The rain fell on me like a flood

It entered my pores

Filled my eyes

Discouraged my reason

But I never stopped

thinking for you



The sun leaned on my neck

Pinched my eyes closed

Dared me to scream

But I made not a word

Of selfish pain

deep was my concentration



The wind pushed my center

Made every breath labor

Scattered my thoughts

But I never forgot

My direction

towards you



Everyday I wake

sometimes dazed

I lay on the ground

Looking up for you

My love will not sway

I am yours



I don’t need a book

Or any precious metal

Because of my love for you

I need no physical connection





I wonder when my companion

Will come

But I’m not in a hurry

I am patient

Tireless and restless

Somber and stern

Like a child

Wide eyes and open heart

Like a adult

Perceptive and cautious

You know my contradictions

And my intentions

This will never end

Time means nothing

with you my love

Blush

Do you remember the sound of my voice?
When I fell down, I saw you.
Drifting between dreams and songs
Revealing the truth as true as blue.
Eyes distorted by prescription reflectors,
I’m missing the time as perceptions preceptor,
Watch as I rise like mercury’s center
Heat pacifies all memories that enter
Tears made me blind to the light that I held
Time blurred the lines and my thoughts...what I felt
You were the answer to all of my needs
The push pull of wants will never take leave
I stagger, pause and change
My pace my thoughts my heart my brain
This space between the words
And before the print, taste this thought
From a once lost prince
I was true when I fell and called your name
It made me blush now in the same vein
Heart body and mind
Words can’t describe
My pain

of losing you
