The ‘Don’t Walk’ sign just changed
And my lament cries countless, cries like dead letters
one person cannot overthrow a legally existing government.
They live from moment to moment with no past and no future.

Just to live is holy.
getting up in the morning is worship
tradition teaches the real dynamics of power
Our heart’s deepest longing can only be fulfilled

most researchers are logicians at heart.
There was a young genius who was fond of explosive machines,
who will be sitting on the throne doing the judging.
The lost are like this

I don’t give that any real credence
But enough of my ranting
keep the alabaster box [full of]
The kind of things you mean to say
