Write All Over The Sky.
Jerk-Off And Fly.
Like An Vulture
On His Way
To A Fish Fry.
Room To Cheat.
Laws Have Cold Feet.
Is That? ─
Having A Blast? Or Just Gas?
Cause It’s
Plenty Of Range
To Act Insane.
Hit A Note.
Fix A Vote
While The World Drifts By
On A Wrecking Ball Ride.

Crooked Signs
Toss It Out Sour Mouth.
Spit It Up.
Take A Gulp.
You Can’t Choke On Diet Coke
In A Fit Of Fear
Surrounded By Hat-Wearing Peers.
Suggestive Crowds Act Really Weird
In A Casket Filled With Lawless Cheers.
Anger Talks Loud And Dresses Dirt Proud
In The Middle Of Democracy’s Shutdown.
What’s Hell And Counts In Time?
A Hate-Filled Suggestion Plane
Fit To Fly
Thanks To Our Ignorant Eyes ─
Yeah,
The Holy Scriptures Have Some Twisted Sisters.
They Trap Minds In A Cult-Like Bind
That Squeezes Thoughts
Into A Psyche Line
That Bends The Sublime
With Crooked Signs.

Takes to Bed
Eagle's In A Knot
Right Wing’s Caught
In A Class-Less Pot.
Hey—It’s Like ─
Spiders’ Instant Art.
Home’s A Silky Fart
From The Inside
Where It Begins.
Mixing Finesse
With Gracious Sin.
Cause
Colored Bugs
Have Their Own Kind
Of Mental Tugs
They Fly─
But Not Too High
Like─
Red Ants On The Hill
Swimming In A Tariff Spill.
They Cough Their Way Through
Using A Confusion Pill
To Push The Spread
That Makes The Dread
Anxious Freedom
Takes To Bed.

Crustaceans’ Life
It’s A Crab Crawl History Ball.
Pincher’s Out. Belly’s Stout
From The Worms That Yearn
For A Seat In The Grand Repeat.
Nothing’s Unsaid, So Pass The Bread.
Crumbs Of Life Filled With Spice
Make Crustaceans’ Life Pretty Nice.

Dog Shag Race
Red White And Blue
Lives in A Cloudy-Ass Shoe
Socks Filled With Plenty.
Spiritual Hands Rather Empty.
Guilty Thoughts
Act Like Sores On Religion’s
Confessional Door.
One Choice Forward
Two Leaps Back
Sin Likes To Brew
When Lies Screw
A Time Or Two.
Flag’s Dispose. Hearts Decompose
When Minds Look For A Throne.
With A Shiny Sword
In The Name Of The Lord.
So Break A Little Bread
Say Something Not Said.
Words Like To Wed.
Like Pounding Paws
And Drooling Claws
In A Dog Shag Race.

Truths Do A Flip
Mind Be Told. Lies Are Bold.
No Need For Peace
When Money Acts Like Grease.
People Lose Their Grip
When Voting Is A Power Trip.
Revenge Yells Loud
Mercy Can’t Be Found.
War Fills History’s Blanket
At An Anger Eating
Bombing Banquet.
Nerves On A String
Fearful Thoughts Make Them Sing.
It’s Brain Pain For The Insane.
Inner Sound Pours Loud.
Searching For Right
With Dim Headlights.
Nothing’s Set When Destruction
Takes A Seat With Muddy Feet.
Cause Violence Likes To Boast
When Negative Beliefs
Crack The Whip
And Truths Do A Flip.

Filled With Flies
Double Jerk Night
Fame And Fright.
One Likes Might
The Other Banks On Bytes.
Shred The Sand In Their Plan
If You Can.
Crabs Do It Best
When Water Makes A Mess.
Insipid Thoughts Turn
Like A Spinning Urn
Hatched From Ancient Burns.
Bleeding Ashes Tell The Tale.
Body Feels Like A Jail
In A Sea Of Disbelief
Full Of Gritty
Bullshit Grief.
Forget The Foggy Goons
That Spit Out Gloom.
Like Striped Cats Licking
Half-Eaten Pie
Filled With Flies.
