Orphans of the American Dream
In a world void of feeling or heart I know that we are the torches in the dark.

- Screw you, I'm from TX♫

I love sellouts, liars and fakes, I want to ride their self pity steam train straight into the closest brick wall. Please tell me a sob story, call me your hero, tell me you love me then sell out your soul to suck the dick of popularity. It's what I live for, really.

Butterflies are Free

They assigned her spirit to a butterfly
because it made them feel better
that she nestled the muzzle of a gun
into her long blonde hair
and pulled the trigger.
They now see butterflies
everywhere they go
and ask
“Is that you, Leann?”

I did not know this
The day I found out she was dead
We were touring Arlington National Cemetery
and I saw the largest flock of butterflies
I had ever seen:
orange and red
whispering vibrations thru the air
floating above the endless
green fields and white crosses
of the heroic dead

I did not know to call her name
I wonder if she saw me
