ground zero is lucky
like light on the wall
I walk through Kentucky
like a shopping mall
compatriots, the patriots
have gathered like fleas
“friends, it’s the end”
made such a good prom theme
let’s go let’s go to the forest for real
I hear they’ve got beer in the stream
let’s go let’s go to the river one time
and cover our skin with atoms and die
I feel dumb
most of the time
I teach chilluns to write
and read for my job
I beg chilluns not to fight
as the main part of my job
I eat sky, drink my blood
and ask you to dance
you say that you would
but the river requires your romance
let’s go let’s go to the forest for real
I hear they’ve got beer in the stream
let’s go let’s go to the river one time
and cover our skin with our skin and then die
I feel dumb
most of the time

such a song
02:13
|

|
This song could be about anything
This song could be about something other than you know
This song could be about anything
This song could be about sitting in chairs as you grow
This song could be about dining
This song could be about eating your ancestors for true
This song could be about dying
This song could be about walking through Wal-Mart and finding your god
But it’s not a song
Cause it’s way too long
Or it’s such a song
That it’s come and gone

they forgot how to grow
02:05

they forgot how to grow a potted plant in the forest
the forgot to bring the nails and screw in hooks
they forgot how to grow a potted plant in the forest
they forgot to cut the other trees down to let the sun reach the potted plant
----
I have been out with the night
I have come back with the day
I am in love with right now
I don’t even know my own name
a god is a kid on a bike
water is time at will
I don’t even know your name
light is the dark that we kill

my applesauce
the whole world’s loss
the barren holy fields
that can’t rebirth their ears
the bear just wants to play with you
a candelabra
hangs from a clear
all of your friends
form a holocaust
the bear just wants to play with you

some of those that work forces are the same that burn crosses
some of those that burn crosses are the same that turn faucets
some of those that turn faucets are the same that file lawsuits
some those that file lawsuits are the same that read Chaucer
some of those that read Chaucer are the same that shop Costco
some of those that shop Costco are the same that buy hot sauce
some of those that buy hot sauce are the same that claim losses
some of those that claim losses are the same that burn crosses

I bet I won a million dollars
I bet i bought you a jet ski
I bet under the Arizona sun
I bet the skin peeled off our backs
I bet I wondered how I got there
I bet I quickly then moved on
I bet we both had heart attacks
what’s anybody’s deal?
I bet I got a real sweet tooth
I bet my tooth could talk you down
I bet you’re walking on a cliff’s edge
I bet you don’t know which way’s up
I bet the rain cloud sends you hello
I bet the next year is so clear
I bet I wanna cook you hamburgers
I bet you wanna smother them in spicy ketchup
what’s anybody’s deal?
what’s anything but real
what’s the Cadillac of feel?

god won't mind

god won’t mind if you kill yourself
and god won’t mind if you kill somebody else
and god won’t mind if you try your best to kill god
god won’t mind if you drink iced tea
and god won’t mind if you drink hot tea
and god won’t mind if you spike your tea with rum
or whatever you’ve got
god won’t mind if you drink and drive
and god won’t mind if you get real high
and run for public office and totally fuck this town
god won’t mind if you shit your pants
and god won’t mind if you wear no pants
and god won’t mind if we all suddenly disappear
i’ve got god inside my little finger
i’ve got god inside my heart
i’ve got god’s love all around me
and soon i’m gonna die
but i don’t care
god won’t mind if you have tattoos
and god won’t mind if you don’t use shampoo
and god won’t mind if you never brush your teeth
god won’t mind if you think he’s a man
god won’t mind if you think she’s a woman
and god won’t mind if you’re a man or a woman
god won’t mind if your poetry sucks
and god won’t mind if your band really sucks
and god won’t mind if you sing a song in his praise
god won’t mind if everything dies
and god won’t mind if the earth gets destroyed
and god won’t mind if the dead don’t return to his or her side
god won’t mind if you don’t give thanks
god won’t mind if you’re totally ungrateful
and god won’t mind. god won’t mind
I’ve got god inside my little finger
I’ve got god inside my heart
I’ve got god’s love all around me
and soon I’m gonna die
but god don’t mind

and then you walk into the yard
and in the yard you dig a hole
and you plant a bush
and you let the bush grow so big
that it is no longer a bush
but it is a tree
and underneath the tree
you think about
how the tree used to be a bush
and that you once planted it there
in a hole that you once dug
but you can’t remember why
you ever dug that hole

no no no no no no a man is a lake
that constantly swallows the rivers and rains
no no no no no no all the time
lights are on like the buzzing of flies
no no no no no no i can’t be aware
let the air of the world that won’t grow
life is a bucket / death is the stuff
fill me up i can’t plead enough
let me lick the baby off the lidless gruff
fill me inside til yeah that’s the stuff
i wouldn’t mind if i came back again
as a friend of a friend’s invisible friend
i wouldn’t mind if I came back again
as a friend of a friend’s invisible friend
no no no no no no i’m a dog
no no no no no no give your grandchild a hug
no no no no no no a man is a lake

when that i know
what i mean is now go
that the sheen is too bright
we stay up all night
and fix what we can
and leave what we don’t
what matters to us
is that the world can

crown of porns

You wear the crown of porns
The blood flows down your brow
You wait til you are born
To write your welcome vows
I ride like evil knievel
Up my own heaven’s gate
I love everything about me
Even my own self-hate
You wear the crown of porns
In the light you disappear
The lightning candelabra
Blossoms from your beer
You ride like evil knievel
Up your own heaven’s gate
I love everything about you
even what I hate
We ride like evil knievel
Up our own heaven’s gate
I love everything about us
Watch you watch me disintegrate

light as a god
as you make to your space
in your head in your head you are fighting
and you won’t turn to god
cause why would you do that
in your head in your head you are fighting
you are dead you are dead
come in come in come in
hey hey hey
you are dead you are dead
zombie zombie zombie
hey hey hey
you have worn all your bones
on the outside of you
you are light as all hell you are fighting
just outside of your view
the world is a stone
in your head in your head there is lightning
in your head in your head
lightning lightning lightning
hey hey hey
you are dead you are dead
zombie zombie zombie
hey hey hey

i’ve got puddles
i’ve got god
let’s drink the puddles
eat the sod
we loved 2012
we were alive beyond the world
we’re still alive beyond the world
it is not that we exist anymore
it is that we are allowed this moment
it is not that we will not be true
it is that we are allowed beyond just now

I want to gather your light pulse
put it inside a Ziploc
let it light up my ceiling
8:30 in the morning
santa comes a roaring
baby comes a weeping
February creeping
march is just a weekend
april’s like hey now
I like to mayo
everybody drowns
or everybody floats now
you drink the holy water
your gallop is a saunter
your motive is you wanted
to be born a little earlier
maybe a day or two
