KILLED THE SHOOTERS
AT THE OLD MILL’S STREAM
Warped my time in Space & filled the empty vacuum with notes C, D, E & F sharp
Chords moved the melody up and down the scale, a weight as heavy as water art
It all comes down to this or that, nothing more nor less than the uncertainty key
Known since the first gasp of air, a gas grab of an embryo stone wall, it’s ‘bout me.
Who will be kicked under the bus but all of us, everyone who is not an alien too
Here is a set of secrets locked up in a safe place, believe me, I wouldn’t lie to you
Or maybe I would if I got paid enough gold and silver, for treasure I will comply
Accurate as any other fool who knows nothing about existence, pro or con high.
Documents snuck out of the hidden records section, it’s all a blue secret of a liar
Worm into the game in the middle of the field of dreams, I woke up burned in fire
Purgatory or hell below, inside of the core of the planet, what’s left of the godson
All baked, fried, seared, barbequed both inside and outside, a mellow yellow one.
Infancy of finite cells in an unholy frenzy of linear trigonometry, immorality’s mortals
Lost in the calculus’ multiplication of a subtracted addition to zero, Covid19 gumballs
My children look in a mirror and saw a reflection of what their mothers allowed no say
Neither aborted nor immortal, a corner in cubes of six square plains, shot holes, today!
Five o’clock as the end of time, the workday’s finished, weekends all begun
Searched up and down, in or out of the dream’s reality room of smoked cash
Freak and the identity of the species’ mutants are all one and the same cache
It’s messed up in chaos’ order, zeroes and ones consecutive ad infinitum cliché.
Fear nothing, love everything, it’s all there is, it could always be worse, all bad
Evil leftover backwards ‘live’ just a coincidence, oh wait, maybe not, we been had
This dream’s nearly over with, seems to be losing its kick & it’s fading clear away
Brought the purple beams to light up the winner circle-sky, above & below, ahoy!
