RIVER RAT
Forrest Day
Power-packed, organically charged
animator, decorator decorating
audible landscapes with drapes
Bendable fitted to life's curvature
Unsure, inexplicable signature
Habitual truant keeping
the lines congruent
Top dollar justice
for the rich and affluent
Like a baby's diaper
we change and wipe their
happy little assholes closing tighter x3
Highly acclaimedfiction writer, nail biter
gunfighter, 90 word a minute typer, hyper
since the incubator, now a chronic
masturbtor, traitor to his people and a frequent bedroom perpetrator
He loves his cocaine, listens to Coltrane
Afraid of automobiles, trains and planes
Backpacks the mountain to keep sane.
River rat, inflatable tube mercenary
Visionary visualizing national uprise
Walking out under the blue celing, reeling
Falling asleep to deep feeling, rise
Always addicted to sunrise
Don't care anymore
Glazes over his eyes
By the end of the summer the river dries
By the end of the winter the man dies
Sitting back
Electronically charged armchair
Arm-hair sticking up
Chillin in his underwear scared
Gullible, tricked by mass media
Trivia, terrorism hysteria,
America a nation scared shitless
Witless, the rest of the world has bared witness
Kicks back enjoys his massage
While the pride of his country is robbed
While the pride of his country is lost
While the pride of his country is lost
