Rationality Makes Me Sick

Rationality Makes Me Sick

Well you're so fucking organized
Rationality makes me sick
You trust your brain and trust and your eyes
On good days I throw bricks
You're not concerned
About lows and highs
When you're unhappy
The worst you do is cry

Well you're so fucking sensible
Rationality makes me puke
You can break me down in a crucible
Look me up in a book
You're so concerned
About what is right
Without distraction
You march into the light

Well you're so fucking delighted
Rationality makes me vom
It's types like you who get knighted
Types like you lead the prom
You're so concerned
About your prestige
Why don't you make a motion
To produce more grease

Well you're so fucking disciplined
Rationality makes me chunder
I can feel this primal land
Speaking through its thunder
You will never
Embrace the chaos
I follow the prophet
The saint of death and loss
The saint of death and loss
The saint of death and loss!

The Horde Marches

The Horde Marches

The idea should be
Specific and universal
The syntax should be multiplexed
Using form that suits theme
Felicitous choice of language
Should render meaning apparent
Without need for extraneous verbiage
Character defines tone and tone defines character
Delivery should be unaffected
We march to the pig skin beat
A sound that has echoed for thousands of years
Bouncing off the hills
Then concrete
A superstructure penetrates the mind
Like a mammoth tusk through a brave
And no more can be said
For the trampling of the horde
Each footstep a droplet
Drowns the voice
No one can hear
No one will know
No one.
