my friends sleep in tents

 

my friends sleep in tents
pitched in front of Shitty Hall

cuz they won't accept
immoral scapegoat laws
that any hater makes

a family of red tents
where revolution
dreams and awakes

 

 

 

 

 

spare some change

 

spare some change
for a homeless VET?
your spirit is near
Pirate Mike

spare some change
for a homeless VET?
your compassion echo'd
in that desperate 'vet'

nearby nearby
in the diamond night

 

 

 

 

 

faces faces

 

faces faces

go by they

are as innocent

as ripening pears

 

where are

the hornets

who love

them so?

 

are they

asleep? oh

here comes

the wind

 

my season

of innocence

comes in

 

cuz then

my loves

come to me

again


and we dance

 

 

 

 

 

we are born

 

we are born
into the eyes of
our mother

we don’t die alone
we are welcomed
into the cosmos of love
we were always in
