COMPARED TO A CANARY & A FOX
Birds and wild dogs put the mothers right in their places, back up against the cave’s wall
Inside the mountain where only one entrance it the one and only exit, ‘cause she up n’ fell
Fell into the flesh and bone and succumbed to the heat of a moment or two, anticlimactic
But it’s better than the alternative, no light, no eyesight and can’t fight with a sharp stick.
Rocks can be thrown, boulders can be rolled down hills uncontrolled, bouncing, spinning
Knives and clubs can be fashioned, swords and spears, small and large lead balls to throw
All of it for the territory and the female reproductive function to multiply the herd thing
In an ooze of invisible gas, the atmospheric pressure is lost to the outer space of air flow.
Far away from the place that’s too far out to get to, it’s not my choice to miss the space
But since it must be done, I awaken from the dream that’s been disguised as my face
What looks out of the eyes and smells through the nose, tastes and touches, who hears?
Veils over the faces, reputations precede us all, lead, follow or get out of the way, Fears!
Nuts from the trees grew more and then women made a man come to high heaven’s sky
Bringing the DNA into the gene pool to achieve the survival of our animated acid, I lie
Truth is empty of meaning, it’s what it is after the sound has ceased, post rock and roll
Spun, weaved, wobbled and thrown into a boomerang orbit, this is it, all there is, GOAL!
Marks and scars from the damaged epidermal layer of bone cover, from toes to the schnoz
If I get too sozzled, I’ll need to substitute a pinch hitter into the line-up, to foozle the blood
Pain and suffering all in the mind of the adult babies in pampers, can’t get to the commode
Multi-celled protozoans on crack, on a playground of snakes and worms. as I play the blues.
A phenomenon out of the twilight zone matrix, unidentified object of the predication’s cross
Players all alone or on a team, it’s the nature of a plan to reduce the chance of failure, of loss
Practicing the same thing over repeatedly to embed the behavior and reduce a chance of ends
Too human or not, it’s the way it is, there’s nothing we can do about it, it’s out of our hands.
