I Promised You War
So high to the mighty clouds above yourself
Upon the steed of the highest horse in wealth
Of a higher esteem born of self rewarding
Imagining the people of your rigged election
Voted yourself in upon rules of your creation
Take the hands from your hips when hoarding
With these mountains I moved
With bloodied fists I proved
Your every vein and soul I can sever
There is nothing I couldn’t deliver
I promised you war
‘til every muscle was sore
I promised you war
And you wanted more
Cannot be so long for the hearing ‘til deaf
All I ever ask is to be left instead of bereft

Red Line Angel
She’s going be a red line angel
Screaming in the forest when no ones around
She’s going be a red line angel
Soon to be a milk carton photo never to be found
Stumbled too far and now the horror stories true
Charged under a cold steel moon of electric blue
Only the stars to witness the atrocity of her death
A machete across the throat that stole final breath
Join the hoards of those before him through years
Now the reality of the stories they heard in fears
Is reflected in his face when he spills crimson tide
As the monster lives to ensure you can never hide
She’s going be a red line angel
Screaming in the forest when no ones around
She’s going be a red line angel
Soon to be a milk carton photo never to be found

I said Don’t Tell Me
Don’t tell me of a world of masterful politicians
Don’t tell me of a world of embattled coalitions
Don’t tell me of a world of the spin doctors slurs
Cannot perceive the blindness as the vision blurs
Don’t tell me of a world of the dominance in hate
Don’t tell me of a world in riches for who last ate
Don’t tell me of a world of trades in bloodied furs
Cannot perceive the blindness as the vision blurs
Do tell me of a world where a heart seeks allures
Do tell me of a world for when tranquillity conquers
Do tell me of a world empowered as rebellion stirs
Cannot perceive the blindness as the vision blurs
Don’t tell me of a world of violent augmentation
Don’t tell me of a world in servitude of aggression
Don’t tell me of a world of pennies before the cures
Cannot perceive the blindness as the vision blurs

Acsending Angels
Anointed for the crusade of umbilical reasoning
For the milk of mothering yields within nurturing
Open eyed upon premiere days of virginal dawning
Absorbance of energetic and unselfish lightning
A course of reasoning foundered upon frontiers
Of the unborn yet that of all absolute warriors
Yield a sword of reasoning inside pulsed comprehending
To taste under storms of the kiss of blood sharing
Bearing wings of absolutions light for truest faith
Flowing to the mortal soul thus of altruistic breath
To kiss forth the life to all of the suffering so no more
When locked of perspectives in bleeding hands sore
Equipped and free of catatonic imprisonment foundered
Birthed again in retribution so self scented and rendered
Reached the fingers of wanton learning and knowledge
Sought of mortal wires in frames of that to acknowledge

One Damn Good Friend
Please don’t assume I don’t know, I’ve seen that look before
Been to a few places in my time, I swear your fighting a war
So put down your guns down, and raise up your heart instead
It’s just not our style to keep this going, for what she said
Drown your frustrations and walk with me, for a few moments
I’m not going anywhere so may as well, lend you my comments
But hearing your words first, would be a good place to start
Let’s explore this and open up, to me this glorious form of art
Put two minds together and focus, on something of newest designs
Tremendous isn’t it? When at least you can divulge a few lines
Splashing out on a few drinks, and sticking by your every word
Perspectives meet this way, and also amusing even when absurd
Watch the horizon light up together, as the morning is a new day
And see how much ground we have covered, in finding a new way
Nothing but the truth here, amidst a hurtful world of cynical smiles
Use an emotion as a method, and focus on such articulate styles
