moondog - logrundr 19, organ book 1 lyrics

Loading...

the sword of damocles is hanging over all of us
in view of that, what subject can we sensibly discuss

if poetry is unpopular then poets are at fault
for writing fuss and feathers when they should be writing salt

i write my poems a+la+poetry but there are those who don’t agree with me
who wrote their poems a+la+prose

i saw myself in terms of what i wanted me to be
through eyes that saw for me just what they wanted me to see

the only one who knows this ounce of words is just a tokеn
is he who has a tongue to tell, but must rеmain unspoken

i find the greatest freedom in the stricture of a poem
that paradoxes abnormality within the norm

in working out a pair of lines my blood begins to race
as foot by foot the words consume the fourteen feet of sp+ce

my credo may be this that air my dirth of days is past
i’ll strive to live each one as if it were my first and last

the picture in the making here is just another prank of irony
who paints a beggar standing by a bank
what i say of science here i say without condition
that science is the latest and greatest superstition

carnivores lived on herbivores who lived on plants
were all consumed by omnivores who walked around in pants

as mass production masses on the borders of the mind
a treaty of surrender is conditionally signed

a martyr couldn’t be a martyr if the world were good
so while he’s changing it, he’s halfway doubting if he should

considered independently, the city is a curse
and only seems a blessing when compared with something worse

that saucy little fly on the ceiling is defying the law of gravity
without so much as trying

as blind as it was brutal, force was hidden under law
as blind as it was brutal, hardly anybody saw

a coconut with sprouting sails came sailing in from sea
as if it knew the kind of soil that grew its kind of tree

within moments time the final grain of sand will drop
up end your glass old man or else the universe will stop!
