Hour 4 – 9:00 AM

 

I’ve been a menace in my dreams.

I’ve heard the child’s loudest screams.

We take a vote one more time.

And slide on through to the other side.

Unrecognized in this frame of mind.

Where we’ve swallowed our demons,

and held on to our pride.

I’m elated to tell you I’ve found the truth.

Buried beneath all this money there’s the root.

The cause, it’s unconditional, it’s bearings are mute.

Disguised a society covered in soot,

barebacked, & left with no loot.
