AN IDEA SPEAKS

I'M HOMELESS AND ALONE;

I'M A LUXURY; YOU CAN'T AFFORD ME.

TIME WAS WHEN I WAS WELCOME.

TIMES HAVE CHANGED.

NO LONGER AM I SOUGHT AFTER; STILL, I'M RECOGNIZED,

LEGISLATED AGAINST.

THEY SEEK TO CRUSH ME, THE MOB

CALLED MAJORITY.

MY SIDES ACHE WITH LAUGHTER.

THEY WANT TO DESTROY ME. TO DO SO

THEY MUST DESTROY THEMSELVES.

FOR | EXIST

ONLY IN THEIR MINDS.

NIGHT SONG

IN THE STILLY, STILLY NIGHT

"HEN EVERYTHING IS SPENT,

| RUFFLE HER HAIR AND KISS HER NOSE, UNTANGLE OUR FINGERS, DITTO OUR TOES, BEFORE OUR EYES CLOSE TIGHT IN THE STILLY, STILLY NIGHT.

BEFORE OUR EYES CLOSE TIGHT, WHEN EVERYTHING IS SPENT, ME LIE LIKE SPOONS IN BED

FOOT TO FOOT AND HEAD TO HEAD, COOL UNDER PALE STARLIGHT

BEFORE OUR EYES CLOSE TIGHT.
