Recently, I heard it said Out of body life our lot Though, you say it’s not We oft live in our head
Bet It Ain’t So
Please, breathe deeply and let it all go Why worry about how little you know? Sit back and relax and go with the flow Like you are buried neck-deep in snow Unless you’re loaded, rolling in dough You don’t count, case you don’t know Wage-slaves, drones held down below Have a drink, toke, a nose […]
Conjoined Twins
Although flies shall feast upon the face of death I don’t care to sever them from their short lives It is the natural way, we express in every breath All follow our own natures until our end arrives Yet still flies linger, called to my warm breathing Do they remind or only irritate by their […]
