Grannypig in a Web - Conspiracy
I called to get a new loan. Yeah... Yeah. Yeah, that's my paperwork. I like your loan negotiation gimmick. Right, Online banking, whatever. I'm on the phone. I don't feel very online.” Daddy Farmer stops speaking, suddenly looking serious, listening to the mumbling phone.
“You of all people are asking if they were really talking alien spiders? Why don't you already know the answer? You are family. You think we could hide a conspiracy like that from you? We're not funded by the CIA …we're a family farm, Cousin!” He was cut short before he could rant further. He is a wide...

Alien
it must be this toxic heat or
your delirious presence
that provokes my body to betray its humanity
and disclose its original form
more hastily than the usual
but what is done is done
like how we exasperate the earth
beyond forgiveness
and how you make me want to twist, bend and raise my limbs
towards you in ways incomprehensible and appalling to human eyes
I am brimming with alarming conspiracy...

Tv screen
Struggling with reality
I’m inside a tv screen
Being watched life’s every scene
Starting to Feel all the static
Volts spark me to my knees
mix chemicals in my brain
Till the pictures not so blurry
Situations like this
Got me floating up to my eyelids
Not really helping my self image
In the wrong channel
Grew up on discovery kids
Now I’m watching the worst of it
But who's gonna unplug me
Say they did this to me
I notice all my problems
Won’t change the format ...

Say Goodbye to the Colonizers
Stuck in a job you hate
But can’t afford to lose
Mortgage, property
Tax, HOA dues
“Too Old to Die Young”
Too good to be this
Inconsistent
There is nothing
You can do
About
It
Deception comes
To mind and
Stays
What at first seems
Exotic becomes
Common and that
Means death is
just around
the corner,
Waiting for
You to
Turn
It
Bad company,
Bad mindset,
Bad optics,
Blobs on my
Couch,...

In a Perfect World
In some perfect world there would never be
Any darkness. As dystopian sunlight filters
In from the outside people try to break free
From society’s chains and yearlong winters.
People see endless despair and no hope for
A perfect world. We all pray for an open door.
Any darkness. As dystopian sunlight filters
In from the outside people try to break free

Deep Space Sickness
In Deep Space
you dream a lot
of loved ones
and of the dead
one by one
they come
to comfort you
only their beauty
betrays them
in starlight

Dystopian World
The dark clouds cover the sky, a forewarning
Of what is to come. Maybe in a world full of
Darkness hope is not so dangerous after all.
In the empty streets people are mourning
What is never allowed in this world; love.
We never know what is behind the wall.
Of what is to come. Maybe in a world full of
Darkness hope is not so dangerous after all.
In the empty streets people are mourning
What is never allowed in this world; love.
We never know what is behind the wall.
