Wanna Fight?
its a thick night in July and the world is still there
we’d been drinking 3 or 4 hours
maybe 5
ever do any time? J asked
a little
what was the rap?
nothing much
nobody ever admits they are guilty
everyone is guilty j, I said
the only mercy is no mercy…
What?
do you wanna fight?
I’ll fucking kill you
I guess we better not then, said jack
There are no answers only questions
false laughter clouds the air
there is nothing to forget and nothing to remember
the dead breed more dead
the sea and the earth swallow us all
I am to afraid to look
but when I turn away another terrible sight awaits me
and I have to look away again
that’s when I become aware of my heart,
my throat, my despair, my mind
what’s left of my spirit
That’s when the death wish arrives
that’s when you know that you never accomplished anything worthwhile………………………………
We are all museums of fear.
So cart it away, nuke the humans
and the cities, trash history
just leave my shoes standing there, untied
the left one upright, the right one on its side
leave it there like that
frozen in time, empty forever
marring the pure open space.
I was expelled from school my 11th year
my English teacher called me a waste of time
but she read romance novels
so fuck her
my history teacher called me a leader
but she couldn’t control her own class
history forgets the soft spoken
my science teacher said I could do better
but so could he
I get paid more then him now
my math teacher told me to put my head down
he knew how to break dance
I liked him
they were all there at my expulsion hearing
they all signed off on me
that day was the beginning of my education
Question Everything
well said.
