Image for the poem burn

burn

 
I spin on a spindle of hope
among the chaos
burn baby burn
here we go daddy'o
you've been waiting on me to rise
giving up my location

I'm out back with the fellas drinking whiskey
do not disturb
invitation only
leave your godhead at the door
the Koolaid is good
come on in

sample some down-home moonshine
you'll get drunk off the irony
I'll whittle at your anger
you'll succumb to my wiles
singing poverty to the masses

hang yourself on a telephone wire
you lied for the last time
blaming me for your exodus

I am the fire you are the flame
