The feminine jeep

 A trip down to the local consumer building
The youth was glared at and smirked at
dodging the intolerant in his skirt
swapping shoes, losing identity

sexshop shame showing on the face
clinging to the uncertainty
reflecting through exposure
uncomfortable revelation

The mall an identity building space
where the concept of freak is re-evaluated
packaged and resold as convetionally abnormal
The shoppers come in with nice empty hearts

Lets lament the part of themselves they abandoned
acquiring a face was easier than learning how to build one

Entering a one way street

 Going against the flow of oncoming traffic
looking for someway to exist
Not knowing which wrong turn is less worse
You made your bed, so to speak

The phantom mansion
slowly comes into existance
How do I install laughter and forgiveness
Love and acceptance

How do I connect the main road to it
Instead of living in some lost statue

Calamity pavement

 Family city
slopes off suburban hills
avenue brothers
street cousins

You spend years sweating 
each step an effort
up that hill
just to step into wet cement

street cousins jeer
as you slip down that long corridor
losing your progress
and destroying the freshly paved

avenue brother
boulevard mother
Can you see the calamity
more clearly than me

The motorized illusion

 cluster refineries and destruction
the molten mixture pouring out of the fissure
The dragon´s throat acid spilling into the caves
where prehistoric human like us brave

Gusts of blast waves burns and concussion
We need to be well oiled machines on the earth
We need to fit into the cogs of society´s overheating engine
sweeten their axles with greasy lies so that the whole shitshow rolls

Life is a pet store

 The world was a toy
A gorse bush waiting for the goat
An empty kerosene can bouncing and hitting the pavement
The ship yard and the river wherever life moves

The simple valley port
spawns tadpoles of adventure
excitement and the unknown
No time to stay a child

The world was a tool
we can inflate ourselves
to the size of whales
leverage near the capital

selling simple comforts
To take care of something
even when you were less cared for





The endorsed marriage

 Father was a towel
Mother a cellphone
The train station smiled
the pavement nagged

The Rees boys waited for their money
down by the strip mall
nights were thieves
merciless fate peddling fiends

Forfeit love
under a numbness that society weaves
Desperation is given a golden ring
And long years of affection are given disregard
A kind dose of negligence

Father listens, the nose smell I told you so
Brother looks at the ground solutionless
And mother panics in a thousand voices

When you lose the only person who could stirr a spark for living
Just to make the puzzle fit

Wedlock and child support

 The family was accustomed to drinking candy soup
We found a few ways to impress our father
Yet it was a meager garden

There just wasn´t alot being offered
flash floods of envy hidden under layers of makeup
And the family fractured as father walked out
The van packed with another family chattering kids

The van was as wider than a bus and whiter than a ghost
All strapped in, seat belts tying them to a new destiny far out
Leaving the front lawn like fugitives, those desperate eyes

and then night
