There must be a name for this launguage we use, to confuse and bambozzel. Labrynthean foley forged out of iron. Controlled chaos in a carpenters cup. Mis Caos T. Killgrow, the spawn of the first star that fell on a new born world. He looked apon it and said "Fuck it, let it burn. And he tried hard to set it ablaze, but he was just one. If only he were bigger. If only he had arms that could wrap de mundi. Wrap it and crush it and pull it apart. Wrap it and crush it and set it on fire. Wipe it from the fabric. So tragic the billion bugs. So useless. Hopeless? No never that, always a savior, always a leader. Always the dead. Always the life. Always the thoughts. Damn them, the monstrousity. Manipulated like clay. In tune like a play. Every actor hits his mark and exits. The eternal flame. The boundless ocean of desires, the wires. The arms made up of minds? "Your crazy!" "No I am not." "Yes you are.

The news is all a lie. But not just to mislead us. But to mislead people who can pick us up on the satelites. Interperting dissent in a politically ravaged country on the brink of civilwar. War on multifronts, multiple layers. A basketball cake with strawberries and chocolate, whipcream and candies. The ends justify the means. I can read their minds. They don't think they are doing bad. And maybe they aren't. What?

The mad laugh sneaks in and chokes on a cigarette.

Oh this secret language is truely the "Langauge of Birds," A green lion and a firebird embraced above the earth. The vaporizing is done. Perfect metal of the purest standard.

(New life)

There is a new life
In my house
Dependent on me for love

I am not good at
Showing effection or
Emotion

This new dog is needy
His past full of
Abondonment and painful scars

His tail is twisted
He gives many kisses

I
Look
In his eyes
And he no longer
Wants to remember
His past that was so bad
He just needs me to love him
I think I can

The city sounds like cell phone convo, street wise sale, raingrate thunder and tire squeel monster. Speedy bike delivery dodge metal bull lane change, like quicksilver in a NewYork minute. Brainbashers rule the parks at night, pigeons rule the day. Ivory towers touch air traffic skies swaying gentally in the breeze. Horns and swears fill the air, trapped like rats, going nowhere. Traffic lights, neon delights, every vice, expensive price. Smell of urine exaust and waste. So many people, such little space. Three card montey, hawk eyed hustle. Soft keyboard fingers, hard construction muscle. Every laungage touches ears, Jewtown, Chinatown, Little Algiers. Little Italy Greektown and Boystown too, taking a stroll at the city zoo. Wall street numbers just points on a page, people fortunes gone in a day. Or gained. The city is a maze. It could steal your heart or make you crazed.

Bring us water for our fire
Please wet down this barren earth
In the halls of fabled Pangaea
You spoke the language of the birds
Your a trickster who danced like a lion
Life sprung forth from your womb
In the heat you had heavenly visions
In death you created the moon
You horded the knowledge of lifetimes
No stories came before you

It slips in through the window’s glass
Seeps in stone through tiny cracks
Travels at the speed of light
Toxic warfare for our sight

It travels on the wind and spins
Into brains and through thin skins
It tells us what to say and wear
And sets the stage for political fair

An air born menace, invisible foe
Baird’s transmitted picture show
Psi Ops signals, remote control
Rabbit ears, hypnotic glow

It is particles and waves that save
Images on tiny rays
That hurtles through the atmosphere
Starting lies and spreading fear

There is one protection
From this air born toxin
Read a book
Imagination
