WE’RE SAFE

DON’T SWEAT THAT SOLAR FLARE

SOMEBODY ELSE IS TOAST SO WHO CARES

OUR CORE KEEPS A TWISTING

MOLTEN NICKEL-IRON SWISHING

GET’S A MAGNET-AH FIELD SPIKIN’

KEEPS THEM SPEEDING PARTICLES A HIKIN’

YEAH THAT MOLTEN CORES A MOVING

MAKES THE CRUST START SLIPPING

SOME SINGLE MOM’S WORKIN’ FOR TIPS

NEXT THING SHE’S CRUSHED BY MARBLE CHIPS

WALKING DOWN THE STREET ON A SUNNY DAY

LOVING THE WARM SUNNY RAYS

SOMEBODY I NEVER MET WHO HATES ME

FLIPS A SWITCH AND MAKES US BLEED

VIRUS, BACILLUS, FUNGUS, SPORES

THERE’S NOT ENOUGH SO WE GOTTA MAKE SOMEMORE

THE BOYS TELL US WE’RE JUST FINE

THEY GOT A HOLD OF THE BUGS REIGNS

SOMEBODY FORGOT HOW MUCH MONEY THEY HAVE

SO THEY’RE SHAKIN ME DOWN FOR A HAND

THERE’S SO MANY HANDS WITH NEEDS

IT DOESN’T MATTER IF YOU HAVEN’T GOT FEED

YOU KNOW THEY’RE MAKIN’ A FIX FOR US

IT’S A STRETCHY AND A PLASTIC CRUST

GONNA TASTE SMELLS AND SEE SOUNDS

GONNA FEEL WHAT COULDN’T BE FOUND

NOT GOOD ENOUGH WHAT WE NATURALLY HAVE

GOTTA MAKE A NEED FOR A NEW FAVE

WHAT WE SENSE MIGHT BE A FAKE

THEY’RE TAKEN CARE OF US FOR HEAVEN’S SAKE

THE LEADERS HAVE GOT A PLAN TO HELP US

THE LEADERS HAVE GOT A QUESTION FOR US

THE LEADERS HAVE ANSWER TO QUELL OUR TIRADES

THEY MOUTH WORDS LIKE AS PUPPETS OF UNELECTED AIDES

IT’S ANOTHER BEAUTIFUL SUNNY DAY

THERE HASN’T BEEN A BUMP ALONG YOUR WAY

YOU’VE DODGED NEUTRINOS AND GAMMA RAYS

AND LIVED TO HEAR ANOTHER’S ENDED DAY

Compound Vision

MULTI-SPECTRAL LIGHT FROM DISTANT GLOBE

WHOSE PATH FROM DEEP WITHIN EXPOSE

ITS’ SCHISM BOTH AS PARTICLE AND WAVE

DOES DAMAGE TO ONE’S SUBSTANCE OR SAVE?

MAKING WAY DIRECT, DEFLECT, OR REFRACT

BOUNCE AND BEND AND CATARACT

TO ENDS THAT TAKE THEIR TOLL, A TAX,

YET PAYS RETURN

IN COLOR, TEMPERATURE, AND BURN

BODY, SOUL IN RESPECTIVE TURN

TAKE SOLACE IN THE POWERFUL, TACITURN

NATURE OF SUCH GIVING AND TAKING ARTIFACT

FROM ACTS PERFORMED SO LONG AGO

EXPENDING SUPERNATURAL FORCE TO COME IN

BIOLUMINESCENCE, VAPOR, OR EMISSIVE GLOW

EACH SIMULTANEOUSLY OR IN TURN

TAKES MEASURE FROM DIRECT AND INDIRECT RETURN

THAT SUCH PARTICLE IMPARTS TO ALL IT STRIKES

THE METTLE OF WHAT SUBSTRATE IT WITH FIGHTS

THE REASONING OF BOTH SUBSTANCE AND FORM

IS LEFT TO ORGANIC LIVING SWARMS

THAT LITTLE WONDER AT THE RETURN

OF SUBTLE MEANINGS TO WHAT IS LEARNED

EACH ORGANIC OBJECT THAT REFRACTS

THE ORIGINAL SINEWY OSCILLATING FORM

DOES NOT DO SO IN PERFECT PARALLAX

RATHER LEAVING IT’S PERSONAL METAPHOR

TO WHAT DOES THE ORIGINAL BEAM CONTAIN

AFTER EACH PERSONAL INTERCHANGE

THAT DOES EXPLAIN THE SUBTERRANEAN MEANING

TO WHAT THE HERCULEAN EFFORT OF THE BEAM’ING

CAN AFTER EACH’S SUBTLE DISTORTION

RENDERING INTO PROPER PORTION

THAT TO WHICH THE WAVE WAS WEAVING

WAS IT THE MESSAGE OR THE LEAVING?

THAT MEANT TO EACH PERSON’S REASONING

WAS IN THE ORIGIN OR ENDING

OF THAT FAR-FLUNG QUANTUM BEING

TO TEACH OF POWER OR OF SEEING?

THE PARTICLE OR WAVE

OR BOTH MIXED TOGETHER ARE SLAVE,

SUBSERVIENT TO GREATER POWER.

THE PURPOSE IS ALONE TO OUR

UTILIZATION FOR WHATEVER HOUR

AND TIME SUCH AS WE DEEM

TO DRAW A NEW PERSONAL DREAM

THE MESSAGE COMES BY WISPY TRACKS

ELECTRIC FIRINGS OF SYNAPS

MAKING WAYS ON MICRONIC PATHS

THROUGH MICROVOLTAIC WATERY GAPS

TO SOLITARY YET CLUSTERED HOMES

WHO RECEIVE ALL VISITORS WITH ‘COMES

AND AFTER BRIEF BUT FRUITFUL EXCHANGE

DO SEND THEIR CHARGE RETRAINED

WITH MEANING NE’R BEFORE EN’TAINED

FROM THE ORIGINAL WAVES’ FLIGHT

THAT CAME FROM SUCH DISTANCE WHITE

DIRECTED, BENT, OR REFLECTED MIGHT

BE MET AND CHANGED TO NEWER SIGHT

ONE DIFFERENT FOR EVERY LIVING SOUL

WHILE STARTING AT A COMMON WHOLE
