Drip

V1:

A new day, a new moon; a new answer to the question, “Why?”

A lunar vagabond trekking European skies

So impolite in my more selfish day

Pray collusion with the moss, persuade the rock remains

This intrepid traveller, in tune with ancient battlers...

Archimedes’ treatise; heat the seas become the addler

The King Rattler: D.J.C. J.D. Salinger

Kairos and catharsis in an inequivalent caliber…

Mark your calendar--a challenger approaches,

A vascular ambassador puts atmosphere in focus--

Clarity in doses… oh, psychosis free-form! 

Meiosis, apoptosis--oh, it’s hopeless just to be born!

Diagnosis: be warned; we form opinions…

We form societies, we form religions…

We form the reform! We ignore the prisons!

Be more or bleed more before the end is.

(Be more or bleed more before the end is…)

V2:

Well right here is my playground, my words have had to stay bound

See lyrically, empirically, I’m seriously très wound 

Feverishly make sounds--devilishly disheveled--

Yeah, apathy’s a path for me--god damn, we’re all rebels

God damn, we’re all pebbles even if we’re all stoned!

God damn--she got me thinkin’ that her mind is her own.

No--I ain’t your keeper. No hands held...

Take hypocrisy and honesty and I’m a nice meld.

Now process, digest, pick the fruit at its ripest 

Stay steady, the tide must not just aim at the righteous

The wicked, the peace--the victory has ceased

The rise of the yeast, but you can’t cage the beast

When discerned from the burden, the curtain of certain,

Ambitious discouraged, the courage to flourish

Must not be impaired--the words of resurgence

Must not be prepared--be cautious of the urgent.

(Always be cautious of the urgent...)
