Is That Why

 

I read some woman was
Running for president

From behind a veil

And I thought,

Holy shit,

The Wizard Of Oz lives,

Maybe we all

Ought to come out

Into the open,

Naked,

Forget all the

Hiding illusionary crap,

Let’s be open

And honest with each other,

Then I took my coffee

Outside to the sun,

Karen Souza’s

Wake Up And Make Love With Me

Playing in that stereo

Everyone has in their mind,

Smiling because all

Of the ladies I know

Are drop dead gorgeous,

You’d give a testicle

To wake up with

Any one of them,

And then, then

I started watching

People passing by,

The song still playing

And the light came on,

Is that why there’s veils.
