The Evolve ,..

Long Long ago

I wasn't as good as now

And Now

I won't be as good

As when I am 80

But when I'm 80

I'll be dead

Ready for Heaven

So Evolved

So intelligent 

Or so they said ,.... 

The Evolution

Long Long ago

I used to get so angry

I would react

But Now I don't

they put me in Love Jail

and I got none

The Evolution 

the Resolve

the Evolve !

Long Long ago

I would easily hate

Long long ago

I stalked on all fours

crawling and crying

but now I have patience

I've been put through the ringer

and the bee stinger

I've been punched

And I've Won

and i've lost some too
I am Hitler and Himmler
I don't fear the Jew
in fact
you might say
I am Bono
from
U2

I've gone from dinosaur 
down to lizard
I eat chicken gizzard
but I am now a powerful
amoeba 
with a tail that I built myself
but I am also a virus
a protein coated elf
With deadly DNA
they fear what I say
now
in fact
they say 
I fear myself ,....
Shocked like Relf
Arrested Development
An antique
Elephant ,..

and

I have cried as an adult

and I've said Awe shucks

Manifest Destiny

A state of flux 

A slow change

A movement

I make improvement

they hated me then

and they still hate me now

they loved me back then

they ignore me now

'wish I would die

and just go away

but I am evolving

so here I stay

Hear what I say !! ??

I grew a beard

got respect

shaved and got hit

they made fun of me

they made fun of it

I look too young

and weird

But I am far too old

and mature

to be accepted as cool

yet I am a perfect sucker

fool

lovable dependable

easy to rip off

take all my money

honey

i'll never fight back

maybe just sue you

i see right through you

you slash my tires

oh how you hate me

God rolls obstacles in my way

Oh how He slows me

and stops me 

And mops me

up

after a good cry

another loss

For
I am ,..

Just a pawn

or a worker

the little guy

The All American Small Fry

they don't care about

then along comes one day

and One hands me some fun

work to be done

or a freebie

I take what I can

I'll take what I get !

I am not the boss
I am a complete and near
total loss to all ,..

The Man is a mystery

Lending me a hand

Just like in

Nowhere man

A balding old geezer

he gives me the keys

and then he is gone

in mysteries 

that I must write about

as others just laugh

they shake their heads,..

And well they should

they are the gifted

they are understood

unlike me

and mine

the not chosen few

but I am the genius

God told me !

The Few !

The proud

sorta like the Marines ! 

I can write and blow minds

though

Most don't understand

that makes it even better

and in Ray Davies hand,.

Yes,..

Long Long ago
they mocked me 
and hated
berated
used drama
said I was dated
called me old hat
obsolete
or whatever
they tagged me that,..

But now I have stewed 
gained if you please
in fact I'm so strong now
I fight off Disease ,..

I have marinated
'gotten better
gotten faster with age
it's rare to see
 and only poets can be
but whatever it is
Now more people like me
I guess ,...

Is it just because now
I am old fat and gray ??
Respect is given to the pathetic idiot
who must stay ??
a Grandaddy Santa
So wise today
naturally built
I can wear a Scottish Kilt 
and act really strange
and it all gets away 
they all lose focus
not cause they're drunk too
but because i am still dumb
as ever
but they fear they are old
and much like me
and they have been told
so beware
Learn to care

I'm a good soul

but a bad person

just like the rest here on Earth

I seek salvation

yet

I seek dirt

I got to be real

don't want to choose fake

my existence here

will be something like

72 years 

or there of

just like you and you

AND YOU TOO !!

U2

YES

And Bono Caught the flu

Bono is a Jew

Bono got sick

he sucked too much dick

And you better listen up to me

boy !

I'm the New S. Burroughs

I'm the real McCoy !!

I don't switch sides like Rollins

And yet I don't really

stay true

I zig zag and weave

I'm laughing at all of you

But yer' laughing at all of me too

The State of flux
the magic bucks
they are coming for you too
to rescue you
so you better be nice
you better think twice
and you'll evolve too,...
