I actually just posted some of my writing on another forum, song lyrics for
a tuneski I want to put together with Pantophobia. So fuck it, here they
are.
Arise with bright eyes
Ready to venture
Fervent fingertips ready set flip
Choose your own adventure
I thirst for a mindtwister
A genuine brainbender
So I can flash my smarts
In the presence of a pretender
Who waxes witty as we cross paths
I'll refuse to laugh or nod
Delayed repentance can always help
To defuse the wrath of God
If I'm wrong
Reading in the tub
Pruned up
Wishing I'd made a date
Forget hopes and wishes
I roll with a gang of expectations
That live to flash their colors
Would die for sisters and brothers
But never the others, not at all
We who are not as them
As dumb, as smart, as fat, as thin
As stern, as silly, as straight, as queer
As sad, as happy, as foggy, as clear
Not us
Knot us together, tie us down
Toss us into a crowd
In the most pious part of town
Better ravage than rust
I'm not happy about this
You aren't either
You don't want me in the crew
I don't want you as our leader
Just lay low and hoard your rocket fuel
Adjust your sights and pocket tools
Mask on tight to repel toxic fumes
Relief may come one o'clock or two
Till then we sound off like cockatoos
We ape our command and mock the news
We're gonna tell the whole world who to sock it to
That's our thing
Hands all smudged black
I'd almost rather die here
Then have to trudge back
When the book is completed
The story begins anew
I always rush to read it
See what I put myself through
If my actions are absurd
My thoughts imbecilic
I live by the word
Till an empty page kills it
