I never asked you to claw your skin off and leave behind all the gods that you love

So why do you ask that of me?

I never asked you to keep on living when all around you the world is dying

So why do want that from me?

I never asked you to give up yourself

I never asked you to change all you are

So why do I have to not be myself

Why can’t I do what the gods made me for?

I follow gods of intangibility

I follow gods of full equality

The kind of equality that can’t be denied

The kind of love that all can know, none can hide

I follow gods who the rich see as fools

I follow gods who tell us we’re not tools

I follow gods who love unconditionally

Who say all of us do deserve to be

Given life, love, and given dignity

All of us part of one full family

May the dawn always rise so bloody

May my blood flow to this earth freely

May my torch-light heartbeat show me

May I learn to not be so cowardly

I follow gods of constant teaching

I follow gods that help me be growing

I follow gods that bring justice to us

I follow gods that I don’t fully understand

May the fire consume my body

May my blood flow set my soul free

May I fight for true full equality

May I fight for all love that must be

Love is infinite, love is one

Love it pulls me right into the sun

Love transforms me in every way

I will fight for a brand new day

May the love transform all of you as well

May the forces of greed go to hell

May we learn how to fight for each other

As siblings, as sisters and as brothers

We are all siblings, sisters and brothers

May I follow the heart I so love

May the flood rain down from up above

May these words of mine find a true home

Where forever the great beasts will roam

The beasts and birds and the fish and the plants

The rivers, oceans, lakes, skies and the lands

May it all be safe, may it be saved

May none of us be treated as slaves

Thank you Forest for all that you taught me

Thank you river, and the sky so starry

Thank you mountains, and marsh lands and prairies

Thank you Parent Earth, I feel your heartbeat

Thank you land below, thank you sky up above

Thank your worms in soil, the soil that I love

Thank you insects, and spiders and trees

Thank you centipedes, and thank you bees

Thank you mushrooms, and lichen and conks

Thank you beavers, and bears, deer and frogs

Thank you snakes, foxes and coyotes

Thank you starfish, and walrus, and the seas

Thank you bison, for you all may I care

Thank you heat and cold, always you’re there

Thank you sky above, clouds, moon and sun

Thank you rain storm, and snow storm and love

Thank you seasons that turn like a wheel

Thank you day and night for letting me feel

Thank you sunset, thank you sunrise

I would give all to help all of you rise

I will fight I swear it so true

I’ll fight for all of us, for each of you

Transform me into what you need

May all the earth and the people be freed

I am becoming, but I am not yet

During life, and after life, may I give my breath

May I give my breath and my blood and my bread

To all the people and all the nature that form the Godhead

The Great Mother, Mother Earth

She gave me a blade

She bade me to use it to

Help love liberate

To help love to liberate

The children so pure

And teach all to do the same

On through the future

———

I gathered my people ‘round

And said we must fight

If they push we must push back

Until all’s alight

We can make a universe

Where The Mother wins

Where those who would slander Her

Find no place within

———

And we made a siblinghood

Of outlaws so kind

To fight for a better life

To help love unbind

To help love unbind the chains

To stand by hurt love

To water love’s sacred truth

That we must speak of

———

The struggle will still extend

Long after I die

My comrades who will be born

Like me, they will try

One day no child will be faced

With a destiny

That is cruel or is harsh

The Mother told me

People talk about growth and they talk about birds and I understand that but I am not a bird and will never be one. Give me blood and rust and dirt and decay. Give me darkness. Hold me under until I am consumed by these worms.

Things aren't supposed to be easy

You're supposed to rebel

You're supposed to take your life into your own hands

Truth hurts

Mint leaves leave the house

House of trees

To meet the taste

Taste of a tea

When we put mint leaves into the teapot

It gives the vibes to chill

Chill out till you meet the roots

Roots of the tree

When we can’t find the start

Start of life

We will begin to hurt ourselves

In order to kill the pain

You gotta survive through the worst nights

When you do

You will find a star

Only shine for you

It will be the gateway to the miracle

I feel like a dog being put down.

Anesthetize me, the old dog.

Take me on a walk.

Just take me on a walk.

I'm begging now. On my back,

Throat bared for you to rip open as you please. Jugulars spray painting the wall.

I dream of a life that isn't mine.

One of the young dogs, free.

Wildly playing and running.

No begging for walks to be had.

They know no fear of masters.

They intimidate and rule over, they are the hunters.

They relish in health and blood.

The old dog replays in my mind daily.

I am him, he is me.

I see myself in the weak dogs,

In the dogs awaiting euthanasia at the pound.

We've lived long but not long enough.

Loved but not loved enough.

I'm just an old dog.

Please, take me on a walk.

"Sin Eater"

Blame me at home on your troubled days,

You're ready to curse when life's fabric frays.

A scraped knee, or a fall—my fault always,

Your anger's loud, for all to hear.

You have nothing to fear, it's my fault too.

I shadow trouble; if I'm involved, it's double.

I'm the dark cloud over your wedding day,

Your car stalls still in the driveway.

A workday ruined, nothing goes right as always.

I say not guilty, I'm innocent, I said, my words in vain.

On deaf ears, my honor assaulted.

A door slams shut in my face.

In your story, is my shame.

Everything is the same, I'm always to blame.

Even when I'm not there, I'm the one you indict,

Unfair, unjust, your words in spite.

How can it be, this isn't right?

The world's woes, my internal hell.

Colliding worlds, the end they spell,

Endless storms, my doing you tell.

Snow in summer, a 12ft swell,

I'm the cause, in this blame you dwell.

Yet, I wear this title, your sin eater, a king of blame.

Absorbing your faults, when you're not right, though I'm wearied and scarred.

Forever your target, my soul bared,

Your sin eater, in a bond unfairly shared.

Sexuality equal to Humanity

When no ones think about the lifeless

Prices will be increased till we see the mindset

Which will help to escape From the mindless

If you go seeking out the happiness

You might get know about the cross roads

It’s Will lead you to the wildness

Seen by the virtuousness

I got to know about the righteous

Greatness will be meaningless

If Can’t help the helpless

Helpless will seek out the solutions

To come out from the population

Consumption won’t be enough till realize the imagination

What can do the generation

If we could destroy the pollution

Which cave into our mind, since we are from the aggravation

Expectations will be vital

To the future population

To go ahead with the imagination

To win the Life by the acceleration

In order to find the hallucinations

You have to have the sensation

Get your feet from my mind

I gotta think

Think of the way

How I’m gonna escape

Escape from this uncertainties

Till I met the devil

I’ll search throughout the universe

How I’m gonna survive

Till I see the stars to show me the road to heaven

Way down we go

As long as we able to see

We see the full of lies of reality to keep us on the ground to make the mistakes
