The Shallow End
funny
witty
intelligent
well read
nice
sweet
gorgeous
taunt
hard
Putting them deeper down the list
Doesn't make the thoughts any shallower
***********************************************
Finding Heaven
The neck disappears
Into the stillness of the collar front
The skin taunt behind the ears
Begging to be touched
The hair, jet black
Waiting to be clutched
The hands reaching out
Creating gaps for my form
The mouth, making guttural murmurings
Me imagining the back of your throat
The body, hidden behind the pulpit
Imploring me to think about God.
And me thinking about Heaven.
***********************************************
Hey, you condescending fool
Hey, you condescending fool
We're showing you the door
Come down your cash ladder
Pick you'self up off the floor
Hey, you condescending fool
Get your head out of the sand
Stop blowing up our land
We don't need no helping hand
Hey, you condescending fool
Get your logic really clear
Count the dead and check the maims
You are the "terrorism" fear
Hey, you condescending fool
Stop calling it i-raaak
You're killin our babies
Stop shooting in the dark
Hey, you condescending fool
You're installing death on the fly
Take your guns and take your tanks
Its time to say good-bye.
You condescending fool
Its time to say good-bye.
