I #measure us in the suits we wear:
The more expensive the worst
The quality of the man it does bear,

Ties around their necks are forced
In blame of their actions to share,
Of the million shouts that we hear.

Alo, salut.

I consulted numerology,
the Honmoon was saved before
a meme-ographic memory
from the recesses of 2004.

Nu ma nu ma iei.

The numinous joy
colors over all our gray,
adoration's painted colors
as we live everyday

dancing with the light.

Hand in hand, lips brushing
Against neck soft and blushing,
Time stops for this #rapture
Our hearts about to rupture.

We all #loss power,
Just after we buried the
Shoebox you were in.

I feel adult keeping track of dates
wedding invitations for keepsakes
friends having kids now to celebrate
quinceañeras to anticipate
gifts to get before niece's birthday
forever we may fret of being late

I leap down, prey still
Not aware of my presence
It dies, red on green

I roar to ward off
Trespassers in my domain
Go after my grub

I drag it back safe
To my special hiding spot
And lick my paws clean

I hold my soft tail
In my maw to remind me
I am still a cub

She rises #numinous but aloof,
So our spirits can feel the groove.
Soon she will dance where you’ve-

The pins and needles stab and
Shock, I know I’m being watched.
We’re all #paranoid in the sand
Watching theme handcuffs locked.

We are plants
rooted, we grow along
in our shared waving stance
singing communal songs

The #law is a wall where the poor take the ‘l’.
To those who have riches, it does rather well.
For the law does not stop all the parties and greed,
But it can’t guarantee food for those who’re in need.
