Vomiting Up

Vomiting up
Swallowing down

Walking on this blue ball
Trying not to feel small

As I hear clamoring
On the horizon

Balance of nature
Wanting to nurture

Finding things that diminish me
Slings and arrows penetrate my soul
Funerals and petals

Processions and marching bands
Having to stand up not to stand down

Involved in the righteousness
Of snakes and serpents

Involved in the righteousness of false prophets
Spiritualized proselytized

They vomit it up
As you swallow it down
time after time

Liars and thieves
Barkers and clowns

Selling lies and fake indignation
Not addressing anything serious

Battling school boards
Sowing discord and
Seeds of vengeance

Taking your rights away as
Their power grows

Vomiting up swallowing down
Regurgitate like Jeff Goldblum time after time

Vomit it up don’t swallow it down

Vomit it up don’t swallow it down time after time
