#332- The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas
how could i not love you
to the end and beyond
that dude is stuck
stuckness is his name
that little dude that's a kingfisher
is stuck with his splendid plumage
how could i not love you
to the end and beyond...
a frustrating dirge plays
a medieval martyr sings a sad song
as electronic arpeggios dance
there's a ton of dissonance
unclarity of sight
things we want and things we pledge
the human world swallows us
and we call it materialism like a virtue
because we are LIVING THE REAL we shout
and your living is FAKE, hegemon!
but that little dude is stuck
its beak in a very material tree.
little nudges wouldnt get him out
just shock and awe, jolts of glory
another end of world is possible he says he knows
otro fin del mundo es posible
no, this is not his chosen death
not this end
just shock and awe, jolts of glory will shake him
shake him off, shake shake
the little dude needs jolts, sudden disturbance
shock waves running through his system
shock shock, the beak frees off the bark
and then he flies away.
how could i not love you
to the end and beyond
in sickness sadness and stuckness
irrespective of your choices.
