Terminal culture Refuses to die metastasizes and Multiplies Immune to violence Numb to death pointedly cruel selfishness A sprawling wasteland Hostile to life Endless joyless conquest It’s where all hope goes to die And look at these fuckin losers Their neo-brown shirt brigade Sacrificial virgins to The God of guns and chick-fil-a A bunch of crybaby bullies Terrified with change Impose a uniformity That never fit, in retrospect, yeah that’s alright with me Because of course it’s fuckin bullshit A self-fulfilling prophecy It’s conscripted participation in white supremacy (To a younger me, I say) I can’t promise you justice (To a younger me, I say) I can’t promise you peace All I can promise is a clean conscious A couple of forever friends And a good nights rest knowing that you were right the whole time.

I’ve had a shitty day and I fucking hate the eagles Switch the station to static, sigh and shut it off The panic attacks as I’m trapped in traffic There’s a ten car pile up outside of the keystone mall And yet they say This is an inevitability But it was built in the 80s To satisfy industry, base impulses of racists, and extractive economies I’ve had a shitty day and I fucking hate The Eagles Switch the station to static. STOP IT! Shut it the fuck off! It’s just my father warned me If I’m not a Tory By the time I’m 40 Then i won’t have a brain But now that I’ve climbed that hill Looking ‘round I still Can’t make any sense of it It all feels so insane to me This lack of creativity Inducing our own misery Perpetuate our suffering For what reason? Why? To feel a false facade of freedom? Fund bob rohman’s sex dungeon? For a taste for entitlement and power? To fuel the drive for entitlement and power? I hate the fucking eagles

“There are no borders or boundaries on our planet except those that we create in our minds or through human behaviors” After 90 years of unanswered prayers Finally got to meet the lord herself And recite the script I’ve been rehearsing It’s a funny story man, This dude who liked some films I’m in Became an asshole with a rocket ship I strap in 54321 blast into space! As the majesty of earth faded behind me I Entered the heavens, the barren kingdom of the gods A facade faded to nothingness Walked into an endless expanse Just a woman at a woman at a desk I ask “Is this all life is; to be a product To work and toil away for An unknown promise of eternal pleasure And an end to suffering? But if all that’s up here Is emptiness, the desolation of space I ask, what’s the purpose of the struggle, stress, and anxiety? There’s got to be meaning!” She laughed in my face. I’ve heard prayers for 90 years, I’m well aware But, it’s not my department. I’m not paid to care. You see these worlds that I create? I only build; I don’t maintain The mess you’re in is the mess you’ve made I’ll be clear: Your problems are not my problems And if that’s all sir, good day. “I saw a cold, dark, black emptiness. It was unlike any blackness you can see or feel on Earth. It was deep, enveloping, all-encompassing. I turned back toward the light of home. I could see the curvature of Earth, the beige of the desert, the white of the clouds and the blue of the sky. It was life. Nurturing, sustaining, life. Mother Earth. Gaia. And I was leaving her…. Everything I had thought was wrong.”
