clawBack the numBers

clawBack the numBers

sHe rises 'n falls
in music made
breaths in 'n out
expands the shudder
'til ceaseless contractions fade

all things come 'n go
in relation to each other

our brightest 'n best
paid to become like Gods in Egypt
rewarded with our affections
all of our most valuable artifacts
until they fall back to earth
in their Golden vessels
mumbling amongst themselves
raising the walls that separate us

the hungry dispossessed 'n unemployed
through policies 'n indignations
far too many to count

clawback the numbers
gnash the benefits 'n sureties
feed the gorgon institutions
as they blame the failed futures
on the backs
of people
even their tears are to be counted
in the red

when troubles come we strive 'n strain together
efforts to change
the lobbyist slinks apologies for the greed
no need to worry some one will come
to save the Gorgon, they ramble 'n roar

let the rivers flow fast to the sea
rise oh rise drastically
restless as the times which culminates in change
let our Banks be see through conveyors of our need
harbingers of change, agents our brothers
let the Governments fall where they may
back into your hands and mine, connected to our hearts with bright futures again

we are the makers of meaning 'n value
no one is apart from this
