ANGE’S SONG

 

Oh baby the ceiling is a cherry tree

the fall from the couch enlightening

just another thing that’s been bothering me

 

the radiator feels cold when you grip it

somewhere a landlord is laughing

I can’t wait for the reruns to end

 

as another new bar in the basement

whets the scum of the coming skyscraper

 

skyscraper

 

seedy is relative

anarchy is pointless

terror is a way of life

 

the cold war is over

it’s time for hot wars in blue states

freedom is freedom to sleep in, of movement

 

in the still of the night I say big bang

you say god exploded

 

god exploded
