Not Your Kind of Pretty
I don't want
to be pretty
like the girls
on TV
I want to be
pretty
like
the darkest things
that fuck
that bleed
that love
that breathe
And I don't want
diamonds
I don't want heels
I just want to
scream~
Barefoot
through the fields
I don't want money
and I'll never kneel
I want to feel
like I'm always
dreaming
like I'm truly
healed
Oh...
I don't want to be
your kind of pretty
I want to be
fulfilled ...
to be pretty
like the girls
on TV
I want to be
pretty
like
the darkest things
that fuck
that bleed
that love
that breathe
And I don't want
diamonds
I don't want heels
I just want to
scream~
Barefoot
through the fields
I don't want money
and I'll never kneel
I want to feel
like I'm always
dreaming
like I'm truly
healed
Oh...
I don't want to be
your kind of pretty
I want to be
fulfilled ...

To Be Free
Giving zero bucks to others opinions
Refusing to ever be stuck as a minion
Having dominion over one's own self
Tossing their shackles onto the shelf
Refusing to ever be stuck as a minion
Having dominion over one's own self
Tossing their shackles onto the shelf

Freedom is Back
The waves are hitting seaside rocks
and my vacation's almost over.
I'm trying to heal with salty drops,
carried by the wind's exposure.
Are they adventurers on airy rafts,
or are they just my desperate tears?
Deep inside, I imagine scenery of crafts,
that inspire for a living but who really hears?
In the bus I'm heading to my home,
to slavery of irradiation tasteless,
I am desperate to escape but feel alone;
and this is how I'm stuck yet restless.
Does this job provide a safe tomorrow?
As this is why I never...
and my vacation's almost over.
I'm trying to heal with salty drops,
carried by the wind's exposure.
Are they adventurers on airy rafts,
or are they just my desperate tears?
Deep inside, I imagine scenery of crafts,
that inspire for a living but who really hears?
In the bus I'm heading to my home,
to slavery of irradiation tasteless,
I am desperate to escape but feel alone;
and this is how I'm stuck yet restless.
Does this job provide a safe tomorrow?
As this is why I never...

Earth Angel
Elusive glory is ever aloft
And flavors not the windfall dangle fruit
Granting the pluck and snatch of common loot
Which keeps the common creature warm and soft
And spellbound by miasmic myth below...
Far below, the steady beat of angel wings
Or the crowning glow of haloed things
Which to hominid eyes seem much too slow
And will not requite immediate need
With some spirited drink or tasty chow
Or alternate tonics to mortal greed
Taxing the resources behind the brow
Where heavenly thoughts have sometimes decreed...
That coherent...
And flavors not the windfall dangle fruit
Granting the pluck and snatch of common loot
Which keeps the common creature warm and soft

Which to hominid eyes seem much too slow
And will not requite immediate need

What Freadom?
You had it before you was born.
You new of it up until you was five.
You started fighting for it at 6 just to get some releif at 18.
You start to hear of it again at 19 & begin to fight again.
You win some releif at 21 yet never really winning until your dead.
It comes momentarily & yet tooken away instantly in America.
Freedom!

Kidnapped Democracy
Men who only praise the lilies
At the expense of other flowers
Behave more like hillbillies
Devoid of mental powers.
The same holds true of humankind
For we are neither clones nor droids
And see the monocultural mind
As something worse than hemorrhoids.
But sadly there are those of us
So fearful of the strange and new
That they would justify a fuss
To do away with me and you,
But wise men know this sort of state
Serves only those controlled by hate.
At the expense of other flowers
Behave more like hillbillies
Devoid of mental powers.
The same holds true of humankind

And see the monocultural mind

But sadly there are those of us
So fearful of the strange and new

To do away with me and you,
But wise men know this sort of state
Serves only those controlled by hate.

Stockholm open
My sports bra is doing nothing
to wick the sweat
dripping between my breasts
as I pause,
sun beating down on me,
and in a single motion
my arm raises and
I connect,
and fuck if
I didn’t net the damn ball.
So we’re standing here
on opposite ends of the court
watching the ball
sway in the net,
neither of us moving to
release it
for your play
which gives you a
meaningless point
and leaves me at love.
but in tennis,
love
equals
...
to wick the sweat
dripping between my breasts
as I pause,
sun beating down on me,
and in a single motion
my arm raises and
I connect,
and fuck if
I didn’t net the damn ball.
So we’re standing here
on opposite ends of the court
watching the ball
sway in the net,
neither of us moving to
release it
for your play
which gives you a

and leaves me at love.

The Four Freedoms
We were redoubted, with our ocean moats,
And happy to be unchallenged in the seas
With vast fleets as tyranny's antidotes
And the skies to do with as we please.
A globe of smiles knew our happy trade
And national know how as a blessing
From endless scientific accolade
To literary arts letter pressing
The godsends of commerce and liberty
And all manner of aesthetic graces
And crops that seemed to span infinity
Between content American faces,
Who knew there was no national health
Until every worker maintained some wealth.
And happy to be unchallenged in the seas
With vast fleets as tyranny's antidotes
And the skies to do with as we please.
A globe of smiles knew our happy trade
And national know how as a blessing
From endless scientific accolade
To literary arts letter pressing
The godsends of commerce and liberty
And all manner of aesthetic graces
And crops that seemed to span infinity
Between content American faces,
Who knew there was no national health
Until every worker maintained some wealth.

Land Of The Fee
Why sure,
have whatever you want
ya'll are free to choose,
just make sure to pay for it all before you leave.
How your ancestors must weep
for when they sold their lives
to keep their neighbours free
and noble was the land,
how truly noble,
that lost land of the free.

talon
to be formed by God,
the rib of Adam,
tied to one human lifelong,
to be, at your core, obedient,
curious, youthful and wise,
babe-able, grateful, adventurous, not tired,
to be at your core
darkness evaded, a mistake healed, interesting and more peaceful,
to make moves based on others need.
I am full of this story,
tear edges with my teeth,
rewrite the incantation of purity,
allow us to be in wholeness
murky and faultful and rewarding,
bewitching, forceful, challenged,
calculated, protected,
acting...
