if you're looking for hope and inspiration

go elsewhere


I've lived in the reality of this world

too long to kid you


and yes Virginia

there is no Santa Claus


nor forgiveness of sins

nor divine intervention


to save you from your fuck-ups

I waited on such things


and now I wait on

the dying moments


when birdsong soothes the ear

as the light fades


and the farce ends...
