yank

yank down the doors and nets of your biased generations

open wide the walls that out-closed innumerable folk

build new reputations on your derogatory inflammations
 and let fresh air experience an unpolluted clime

we're sick from your massive influenzas
your abusive crimes, your employment of demons

the end of the depression is bowing before us
the people long suppressed by "democratic" elections

it's time to forsake your petty term selections
of yourselves as the gods for all "colored-kind"

the souls of the suppressed have escaped being hostage
to your "untainted" minimizations, your inherited lust

let go, let go of the noose around our necks
as you strangle your children who lay down and crawl




how many loved-less ones
are chasing aft affection
where e'er it might be found

in the closet 
on the stage 
in the booby-traps that have been laid

tell me
tell me
where e'er they have hid

fear not
i shall not harm them 
if we meet in the mud
nor curse the lineage of their oblations
to the slime and the grime
or imbecilic crimes

quickly
hand me the ledger with their names and fame
i wish to know them
to pass them on
in time

mine's a strange occupation
i know
like the strange aberrations
any one of us holds
strutting about the streets for an instant of fame
15 seconds of nothing
blown with the winds

live Life
live as best as you can
this is all that we have                               in our fabled fairyland
