Fear of Shadows
You can drive a car if you do it right
but you can't go far if it puts you out of sight
you can't look at girls
you can't drink anything
you got to get your kicks in the shadow of fear
You stay out late when they think your young
when they find out, there gonna want you hung
so you try to understand that you might get near
cause your lost alone in the shadow of fear
So you found a chick that you think is fine
but you fell too fast so you lost your mind
society looks, but they turn their ears
you got to get your kicks in...
but you can't go far if it puts you out of sight

so you try to understand that you might get near
cause your lost alone in the shadow of fear
So you found a chick that you think is fine

No Time Like The Present Time
State officials see a bright future ahead
The poor will no longer exist
Drive these people out of their homes
Increase their rent, please try & resist
Isolate them like you once did in Harlem
Ghettos without prison walls
If they revolt, cops smash their heads
Or spray mace into their eyeballs
Breakdown the walls that kept us segregated
No time like the present time
Take out the ruling class
Let them kiss your ass
The poor will no longer exist
Drive these people out of their homes
Increase their rent, please try & resist
Isolate them like you once did in Harlem
Ghettos without prison walls
If they revolt, cops smash their heads
Or spray mace into their eyeballs
Breakdown the walls that kept us segregated
No time like the present time
Take out the ruling class
Let them kiss your ass

Get in on life
You just live the simple life
well you don't do nothing good
you wonder where the good times are
well there right in front of you
Stop being a grump
or you'll get dumped
come on girl, get in on life
You've been told that there's only one way,
and that's why the rules you follow each day
if you keep on living like that,
you're gonna die like the rest of the pack
Let free, let go,
let everyone know
you're not gonna be another victim of society
You're free from your daddy's hand,
go out and find...

Indiscretions
Words are like crystals
of multifaceted rocks.
The words, secret come,
full of memories.
Insecure sail among us.
Since they are light and night.
Paraphernalia of meanings or
plethora of senses and nuances.
Vivid moments lost.
Panoply of possibilities.
In the language compendium
emerge as despots,
cruel, broken or mild,
helpless, innocent, light.
Who listens to them?
Who collects them
in their pure shells?
Evade among the foam,
Green, neutral and opalescent…
in joy they revive.

New York and it's Asinine Laws
New York has some really stupid laws
Recently I've been reading some of them
Here's a handful that are truly ridiculous
1) It's Illegal to Sell Dog or Cat hair
Well I hate both cats & dogs, so for me I think all animals should be banned
2) It's illegal to have a puppet show in your window
I've done that numerous times with placing a sock puppet on my cock
Several times my ex-girlfriend would get involved and decorate her torso and pussy with paints and makeups
Loads of fun
Many observers watched and I even...

Rise Above
Under your authority
A huge FUCK YOU towards leaders and the people that follow
You want freedom?
No government can give you freedom
There should be no reason to oppose all that isn't the truth
They'll try & condition you
Begin early a lifestyle of rebellion
Destroy what destroys you...Always!
Protest & Survive
Revolt!
Disobey!
Create a network without networking
Breakdown walls that they put up!
Stay off the grid
It's hard as Fuck, but it can be done
A corporate takeover is necessary

Boomerang ! Or Self-Destroyer ?
You do not have any friends, that's why you block those who won't talk with you.
spare yourself the trouble, you can't give what you don't have, so no need
to wear thick when its already hot, and say the sky is blue when you do not need to.
You wear red outside your house, and i know that inside you are as gray as the
walls that surround you, you can even dissolve into the walls and become a dumb,
mute stone..as well, you affect your look; your walk, you stalk the naive, introvert
ones, and you stutter like a turkey before the gentlemen, but,...

unintentional rebel
I sometimes feel I'm an earthborn paradox
an entity of murky origins
where does one fit
when mind & heart conflict
trying to exist in endless battle
loading ammunition in a shotgun missing one barrel
fighting demons with my teeth
when a pistol might serve better
eternal servant to my internal addict
craving escape from this perpetual struggle
when the best I can get is a thin beam
seen through a crack...a sliver
like light strained through frost
it's glow is lost in the maelstrom of thought
thick with society's...

I knew you'd be here
always the dormant shadow
casting a constant reminder
over everything I know
a trail of rose petals
leads me to face the open mouth
of a cold gun barrel against my lips
awaking in sweat at the pull of the trigger
follow digital breadcrumbs
to find the weasel escaped the pen
I'm in arms again from the warning sent
my nightmare guardian
it's been years since then
honestly, I don't recall most of it
twisted pleasure a mutation
of a bottom floor, two-bedroom canary
you...

Mirages In The Wind (Heavenly Wind Songs-COTS)
Hopes and dreams cannot be contained by the weeping unto thy moon
Lust unto the realms of the dark only abuses self when deafness follows, empty cries heard in the swoon
Watch the shadows of the crown to know within womanhood, love must be given unto self first
The freedom is in the movement not to allow anyone to box the human spirit and devalue its worth
Be the nurturer unto the soul of Mother Nature, her tears are the only ones unto mankind to heal the earth
It is disheartened for anyone to view this realm we call life with childlike eyes ...

Deja Vu
It appears that the some ghosts of 1968
have come back to procreate
KKK marches, Campus unrest, millions in the streets in protests
it all brings back old memories I must confess
Another close American Pres. election where the Neo Fascist candidate won
leaves me with a feeling like a bitter Chicago winter with weeks with no sun
I don't know about you
but, for me it is all Deja Vu
