Praise

Let's take a moment (to check ourselves)
and see what we have
Everything we want (and some more)
to just get by
Where did it come from? (and why)
who made this our standard?
What does it cost? (and on who's back)
is it worth exploitation?
Praise to the man who saw us fit
To live better lives than those less equiped
Lucky wretched masses, who peer through the vents
You are better, scraping fucking cents.

Loss a chance. What do you taste?
Take (interest) your (mistake) I claim
Your loss (so rare) are you above? (give in to flow) flow
No one is above
Least of all myself

Golden Years

Advice catharsis strategy reflection churns like a nicotine hangover
Clean cut and cast I'm on and stealth weights in bright water shine on
bleak through clear strings
On and on it goes, golden years
Shotgun all-round winner with not much in between
Waking up to fall back asleep all for a better dream
Just another dream, greywater reflections
Just for another day, just another day.

Ambur Melbourne, Australia
Harsh octave bass reverberating below a screeching halo of modulated strings spiralling downwards, lanced by ethereal tones, crushed by chaotic percussion. Sometimes nice too.
