Desired Height (Free verse) by Wulf
We gon' mix up a fresh batch of devils
name them politic and war... no thing more
sprinkle them on the morning
make death in the afternoon
Like twinkle twinkle is gonna get you
a discount on jet streams
when the stars in your eyes
are someone's daddy's bombs and no surprise
the awful price of yesterday's lies
We are the third soldier
mowing machine Mister Gatling
your genius in our hearts
the metal of your love hurts and some thing worse
the kindling of your fire
Waken slowly Child
Peace is the prize of moment
mouthed epithets instead.. 'I care for you'
Energy is all we are
war a misspent potential
There is no thing natural
about selection
choices and near misses
There are no lesser animals
only those whom think and in so doing
wish themselves more
