Cotopaxi, Ecuador (summer 2012)

watching the White House

sitting on my piano bench with whiskey in hand

sipping one for you and one for my band

tapping my feet before i can stand

touching the sky while romancing the keys

watching the White House perform a strip tease

the spokesmen are singing the latest hot blues

distracting their masses from the horrible news:

1) Habeas Corpus is missing a gear

2) immigration is a process to permanently fear

3) rejoice for Apartheid as ONE race shall rule

4) join in the cult or be labeled a fool!

buy a bottle of wine the French nation said

no matter the color from soft white to red

the Statue of Liberty we proudly designed

to stand in your harbor for ALL of mankind

not ever for bastards who wish to control

respect for ALL people which lives in the soul.

a toast for protesters who stormed the Bastille:

keep poking the pigs so they scramble and squeal.
