Low Principled

Please don’t tell
Our sacred secret to my spouse
This vow will make you celestial
So just be respectful
Or, I’ll die!
If you’re so low-principled
Why are you my idol?
Thank god that we’re
White and delightsome
From the start
If you’re righteous your skin will lighten
Our god is white and
You are marked
Like Cain, Cain
If you’re so low-principled
Why are you my idol?
Memorize, and repeat, from the heart
Then testify, of these things, obliviously
Masonry, polygamy, bigamy, bigotry, patriarchy, slavery, statutory misogyny
If you’re so low-principled
Why are you my idol?

Swallow poison
To kill a rival
Anger enters
Celebrate its arrival
And it seems that I've been here before
What's new?
Suffocate on a moment
Or breath in an break it
Dissolve
What's new?
Patience thinning
Heat is winning
Tight rope slipping
Keep your balance as you fall
And it seems that I've been here before
What's new?
Suffocate on a moment
Or breath in an break it
Dissolve
To solve
Dissolve
To solve
Dissolve
Screaming at no one
Breathing to be one
Eye rolls backwards
Bloodshot, tired
Blurry, wired
See an inch and take a mile
And it seems that I've been here before
What's new?
Suffocate on a moment
Or breath in an break it
Dissolve
To solve
Dissolve
To solve
Dissolve
Screaming at no one
Breathing to be one

What a warning
Son of the morning
Be still my heart
A 666 mark
Please don't blaspheme him
Feed on Jesus
Drink blood, it's been blessed
Eat of his flesh
Be still my heart
A 666 mark
Of the least beast
Sacred scary
Please don't blaspheme him
Sinning
Righteously
Grinning
Bend the knee
Say 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
Say 6, 7, 8, 9
Satan, count on me
Be still my heart
A 666 mark
Of the least beast
Sacred scary
Please don't blaspheme him
Save your savior
From his behavior
Satan, please bless
Strength and nourish
Cast yourself out!

You see me (life!)
Then you don't (lifeless!)
Living is fleeting (death!)
Resurrect yourself!
To live
Through death
Create
Eternal (soul!)
Unsure though (soulless!)
Glimmers in riddles (god!)
Or, make your own light
To live
Through death
Create
Make us immortal
Not flesh and bones though
Consume our knowhow
Resurrect yourself!
Just resurrect yourself!
A tone
Meant more
Than you
Atonement
A tone
A tone
A tone
A tone
Leave it all behind

Died yesterday
She was gone too soon
But, we dug her grave with teaspoons
Moved to improve
So she could walk again
Drove to break her curse
But, she was in reverse
Killed years before the hearse
But, when she was young
She could run
She leaned on no one
She had open road
Til there was nowhere to go
And even that was slow
And what if she had been healed?
Or, a cure had been revealed?
Her faith confirmed to be real?
Would we have grown apart,
Or chosen the better part?
Would what matters most,
Have mattered most?
I hope so
Born yesterday
You're a grand kid, Rhode
And the first your grandma will never hold
But, perhaps you'll have her nose

I’m older
And these shoulders
Don’t hold the world
I feel younger
With no hunger
Why rush to birth?
I’ve suffered a mindless waste and
I’ve savored a thought that’s saved and
The same flavors are all I’ve tasted, I’ve finally faced it, it’s time to change and
I’m over
These covers
Under a spell:
That the only
Place for me
Is where I am
We’ve already had six eras, here’s to more
Both held to the same enlightening rod, and we’re sure
Molly you’re my world
Is there room for more?
Took two years to
Sow in you
We still felt alarmed
The ground’s moving
We’re assuming
She’ll stay in your mound
Til six weeks from now
Then water runs down
Now she’s heading out
Wearing a crown
I see her now
Hey kid
You, me, and Judy for years
Now here’s to Rhode
Perspective is unlimited as she matures
She’s our world
The days have blurred
Our parenthood in its infancy, we’ll grow
No purity, shame, or fear of god in her
Creative
Altruist
Our dear Rhode
