I pulled out my shovel the other day
JUST to dig that BUSH up..............

I've grown tired of the "what is, not really is"
game...the lies, deceit and trickery...
but, that BUSH was good...because the mystery
to me was...how so many
people believed, that BUSH was burning
...talking to them/words delivered from the
lips of heaven ... but that BUSH had forked
branches and it's roots choked my garden
and tried to "grow flowers" and disguise it
as my friend ... but my senses are keen
and it's flowers smelled of oil and it's thorns
pierced so many hearts .... that mother's cried
because their children died ... for what?
So more BUSHES could grow? So that BUSH could breathe
life into other privileged gardens while starving the
rest of the land?

So I dug that BUSH up well before November ...
and sipped a French wine while enjoying
my private bonfire ..."Burn Baby Burn"
