This is our soil
If cars can run on water
and man can make it rain
we could work together
if greed don't take over again
This liquid runs thick
coursing through our veins
coaxing many into a trick
one we can't maintain
The sun rises over the fields
rusty birds creek and suck
blood for oil desperatly concealed
still worth the bang for your buck?
the crude smell reaking of money
fueling a world-wide epidemic
a tainted dawn not so sunny
the repercussions are systemic
sheltered by the media
like the ravaged wetlands
a list fatter then an encyclopedia
raping our tarsands
dying soldiers gurgled
thinking they fight for nations
dying for corporations
a baby they once snuggled

Daisies
Mommy says daddy's
pushing up daisies.
“I bet he's a good gardener.”
One day you'll recognize a martyr
For the “Red, white and blue”.
“We want you!”,
While fatherless babies are born.
Since when do eagles grow horns?
Open up a gaping hole.
A weakened young-in as a whole.
To bad tragedy
thrills me.
I am not a monster,
but i cannot counter.
We live vicariously,
time to face reality.
