burn it
if U can
if it is not already burnt
or maybe U get a double double burnt
really burnt
burn it
straight out of the mind
if it comes back again
burn it again
and again and again again
until
can U burn it out of the mind
burn it
yeah
burn baby burn
like years of oppression
and no atonement for the sin
fuck the sin
the crimes against humanity
the crimes against a person
a people
even chasing them from inside the steeple
and in the basement
and anywhere one hopes to hide
from the monsters inside
the casings of the uncivil
burn it
all the dribble
and the hatred
spewing from the lips
of blocked brains
all stained with the strain of
it’s o.k. totally acceptable
that a point can not be seen
and only animosity driven
riddled a whole nation
full of bullets
with strays and direct shots
hitting targets of innocence
targets of just being this color or that
burn it
because it is not the nobility
so one thinks
because for centuries
been cloaked in stink
feel the depth of the pain of the nonhuman
only within the minds of the Grinch
they stole more than Christmas
they stole more than a year
they stole more than everything
tear after tear
burn it
I shall
I try
I really want to
so I write it
I want to write it
share it
it must be shared
before it burns for the lack of sanity
shall it find dirt paths that it travels
and pathed roads and walks
where open mouths do speak, yes talk
reason and logic in the chalices
deep red poured slowly
bringing the tongue around
In vino veritas – (n wine there is truth)
hearing it finally
vincit veritas – (truth prevails)
hearing it finally
there is a people freed
there is a person freed
there is civility freed
burn it
give it to the gods
give it to a free conscious
so one can do what it is for peace
what it is for peace
is release
so if U burn it first –
can U ever go back –
to visit the road of justice
to visit the road of accountability
to visit the road of freedom
the animosities
burn it
