you cannot blame this on your god
misconceived divinity is no exchange for truth
you have no right, any of you
to claim you, understand, the mind of creation
to think that your god, would welcome you
just because you sacrificed yourself
this is ignorance, this is your blindness
this is human ignorance, this is your blindness
you interpret your will as divine direction
but you have no vision of truth, no easy solutions
you’re all a bunch of sheep
without enough presence of mind to realize
that it is long past the time
to evolve beyond all of this
it’s long past the time
to evolve beyond violence
this is ignorance, this is your blindness
this is human ignorance, this is your blindness
killing for your faith, you make me sick to
killing for your faith, you make me sick to be
killing for your faith, you make me sick to
killing for your faith, you make me sick to be human
we’re only human
it’s time to grow up
all you pathetic children
you do not deserve your innocence
you’re not worth the ground that you walk upon
you should have learned this long ago
that your quest for self-righteous fame
isn’t worth anything
this is ignorance, this is your blindness
this is human ignorance, this is your blindness
killing for your faith, you make me sick to
killing for your faith, you make me sick to be
killing for your faith, you make me sick to
killing for your faith, you make me sick to be human

pull

so beautiful, she still had the taste of innocence between her hips
just not as naive as you might think
she knew what she could get for it
truly a chameleon, show you exactly what you want to see
and all the while behind your back
picking up on the next opportunity
she came, under the guise of looking for new technology
little did I know
all she wanted was just another part of me
she stayed too late, wondered if it would be alright to sleep next to me
it was then I knew she was perfect
I could feel it when she moved her hips slightly
all that you have tried to find
I will get that for you
everything that you are missing
I will bring it to you
when the pressure has pulled you far too deep
I will breathe for you
if I find you crawling at the bottom
I will pull you up to me
she just wants
to push herself a little deeper inside of you
to see if she can
pull out everything that she needs from you
the sick pathetic thing
is that I would do it all again
just to feel her, just to taste her
just to have her all over me again
all that you have tried to find
I will get that for you
everything that you are missing
I will bring it to you
when the pressure has pulled you far too deep
I will breathe for you
if I find you crawling at the bottom
I will pull you up to me

fixed/real
© 1999 John Eye/Roanoke
I’m fallen down stitched up around the wound
I can’t speak your language
but you never learned to listen
born blind my eyes burned pure by truth
devoured by the sun I’m floating in this permanent womb
I’m out of place
I feel left over
will I always
be here needing
to be
fixed
I burn down my mind because I’m sick to death
of hearing your voice tear another piece of my soul away
and I let you do me so long
because I was always too weak
to stand on the legs I broke walking on water
I’m out of place
I feel left over
will I always
be here needing
to be
fixed
Now that I stretch your skin across the sky
I can see through you
I see you’re clearly nothing inside
you’re not real
I’m out of place
I feel left over
I will always
be here needing
to be
fixed

why
©09.05.2001 john eye/Roanoke
I’m about to kill everyone
and I just thought I’d let you know
so that you aren’t confused
when I come for you
this whole world has been fucking me
for far too long
just when I think I can take it
grit my teeth and carry on
they find a bigger stunt cock to rip me open again
I was born with the vision of a man of means
and the means of a peasant
it’s only everything that’s at stake here
and I can see that you don’t understand
and I can see that you don’t understand what that means
