SURVIVAL MODE

dodging tyranny after tyranny

through every moment of every day


each tyranny a cry to be free

at the expense of someone else's freedom


and all these tyrannies being aimed

at us all each to each


dodging this every moment of every day

I stay on the move


I no longer pause on a street corner

just to catch my breath for fear


that anyone could confront me with some insanity

I stay on the move and say in passing


"you better get me with the first shot

or you're finished"
