On Getting Close and Casting Out
by Scott Thomas Outlar / September 29th, 2019
The only way to kill paranoia is to embrace it
birds and leaves fill the trees
but only one will be staying the season
If God is always watching you might as well dance
promises and judgments bundled in the deal
and some will save
and some will scorn
and some will never
scab over
This world sold out long before we were born
baubles and trinkets and platinum facelifts
but I would gladly carry
both bags under these eyes
for what they have seen
for what they have shed
for what they have
wept out in blood
and fire
The only way to kiss paranoia is with the tongue
