Mosquito 02:10
mosquito, black flies in my eyes, am I losing my mind this time mosquito, black flies in my eyes, with my head net on, protection from the mosquito deer flies, horse flies, yellow jackets, ground wasps, ground hornets, cicada killer, murder bees, and hawk wasp cicada killer, too familiar, in this weather society anxiety, hanging over you, hanging over me

Entropy 04:13
you're so shallow, and so hollow, you're just a shell of your former self you're not laughing anymore you're so callow, and so hallowed, with your halo low you're just a shell of your former self you're not laughing anymore humanity entropy Oh no, what made you whole will now shut you down Oh no, what made you whole will now crush your soul you're not laughing anymore humanity entropy you're so shallow, and so-so

Circumspect 04:18
Glad to hear you're gonna make it through (I'm) Circumnavigation, circuitous relation, beat around the bush, they'll never see your worst, until you're runnin' in circles Glad to hear you're gonna make it through (I'm) Circumstantial grifting, circumvent the scene, beat them at their game, you'll never be the same, and then you're runnin' in circles Glad to hear you're gonna make it through This life is a circle, I love you're circumference Glad to hear you're alright, alright! I see you, I know you, be yourself, check your time, check your feet, I see you, I know you!

Backyard Garden overgrowing, unkept, yet so abundant Untrimmed hedges in rows misshapen, random roses everblooming Almost lost it, I almost lost it, I was taken by the force of Nature, I was smitten by the force of Nature Backyard Garden always forgiving, ground cherries, garlic, onion, nasturtiums This wildness is a delicate balance of intricate insects Entomophagy all around me, entomophagy inside me Untrimmed hedges in rows misshapen, random roses ever performing Almost lost, I almost lost it, I was taken by the force of Nature, I was smitten by the force of Nature

Friends 05:02
Tonight, the forest is a light, fireflies, and stars Lucid dreaming, remembering when I was seventeen Lucid dreaming, remembering when I was eighteen (T-minus 10 seconds, disengage rocket, forward thrust) At Gladstone Point, it was to be consecrated, I was to anoint our love ill-fated, I took too long, waited, faded, and it bated, so we just hugged, arm in arm, in our strange orbit, in our stubborn devotion, clouds parted, star shine darted, straight through my heart, and my internal combustion was overwhelmed We wanted to believe in amens, We wanted to be more than friends more than friends I don't want to be alone, I thought that you might be home, so I called you on the telephone, but all my comms are down Oh we did not know what we were, Oh we did not know where we were, what we were, where we were, my ship is a'floating away

We were adventuresome when we were young Rusted nails in a pale and the scrap wood in the yard I was a trouble maker of things in the trees In the forest of my father's house In the basement of my mother's house In the kitchen, the aroma, making toast with butter, sugar, and cinnamon The whole neighborhood vibe is gone No more parties on the lawn, Now it's screens, all alone in your home No more barbeques, jazz and blues Everyone lock your doors (I was tricksome) We were adventuresome when we were young, We would stay outside all day! In the forest of my father's house In the basement of my mother's house In the living room, in the glow, always silent, drawing maidens and dragons, drawing dragons The whole neighborhood vibe is gone... Ooh we were adventuresome, hallelujah

Lone Wolf 03:15
There's a lone wolf on The Hill, and he's raising Hell There's a lone wolf on the hilltop and he won't stop until he is Fed There's a ragged nasty sheep wearing wolf clothing, staring at himself in the mirror, and he doesn't even see, doesn't even notice There's a black cloud in the background, eating everything one by one by one by one by Just because they wanna protect their family, he treats them like a disease Just because they wanna protect their children, he treats them like an illegal human, illegal?? Lone wolf, you're gonna get yours soon

Spectrum 03:17
Because this life is such a beautiful spectrum Because this life is such a magical rainbow Because this life is such a fantastic array You should spread the love! All life is a spectrum! It's never black and white; it's a color wheel!

Oh My Dogs 03:07
Oh my goodness, oh my word, here come some holy rollers Oh my goodness, oh my dove, they forgot about love Divisions, destruction, unearthly separation, unruly politicians Oh my goodness, oh my my, working hard all the time Oh my goodness, oh my dogs, they need some more love Divisions, destruction, unholy apparitions, unseemly disinformation Oh my goodness, oh my heart, same planet, worlds apart Oh my goodness, oh my my, working hard all the time Oh my goodness, oh my dogs!

Shiny Things 05:11
So many shiny things what I meant to say, I mean what I meant to say is what I meant to do, play a tune for you, instead, I'm in my room, and I play it out for me, I mean, actually, there's love in the stars above, and in the show below, the mesopelagic zone, around the ocean snow, that sparkles, glitters, glows So many shiny things I still love the fireflies, they're blowin' up my mind in size, lighting up my lawn, lighting up my garden, lighting up my lawn I got time on my hands, I got time on my mind, so much time So many shiny things what I meant to do, is listen real good to you, but my hearing loss is a real problem, compounded by distractions, a recipe that's not fun, for me or anyone In my dyslexic mind, in my ADHD brain

about

When money is more important than humans, truth trickles and is fickle like April Fools or relationship gas lighting. It is a spectrum. The truth fairy is out there...
