no time no mood

it doesnt matter what time
nor what mood
this keyboard is mine
all the time
because i pore it out
for no one at all
this free verse style- all my own
that belongs to the world
cause theres no time
and ive got no mood
but im here
all the same
write.... write... write...
to stay alive
to survive
keep the fires burning
"To put it another way, there's nothing about the present order of things in the world that's tolerable to me. It's completely intolerable. I can't stand it. And I don't want to make my peace with it, I don't want to find a way to make it within that world, or to try to make it. I don't want to be part of the established order. I don't want to turn a blind eye and pretend I don't see what I do see. I don't want to stand on top of the rubble of broken bodies and the suffering and destruction that this system brings down on people and never look down and see what I'm standing on while I'm stuffing my face. That doesn't hold any attraction for me; I'm repulsed by the idea of that and I just have no interest in doing that."
