holding out for truth
often can be the long game
one man raps himself in an upside down flag
while the consequences are as yet to be lived
he will either disappear from history altogether
or infamy will darken every step they ever took.
Leads you to be someone you are not.

The human Mess is catastrophic
Lies, fears, lies
Solamente uno
Cut it down to size

Gonna work today
Gonna sleep as well
Then I sail away
Sail with Ishmael


       Me, Todd Witherell.
I ride the waves of sorrow
to join eternal bliss
I await a kindly person
to plant a gentle kiss
If I could have a taste of everything,
I’ll probably die, before I dine—with a jaded smile;
Cos everything that you see, is really not worth the time.
your eyes still look familiar
but the looks they give me now are foreign
I fall in love with strangers
Admiring them as they are

My heart overfills with enjoyment
And I don’t know where to pour it all.
this time of year feels like a memory already
Why do birds exalt in song
At coming of the dawn?
Unlike us, they never know
If it will come again.
