Punx

I like to see 13 year old punk kids
Who are just starting out
I love to see 40 year old punk kids
Who have kept it up all these years

I like to think about young punks buying patches at the distro all in mixed change
or buying the start of a killer record collection

I love punk rock parents
Who are sweet to their kids
Even if they are crass to you

I look at the crowded show around me
I am in a see of the scene

Punks
Parents
Rockers
Jerks

From your first 7 inch
To your last sold out blow out show

Everyone is here
And we are all just trying
To make it till tomorrow

This one is about Aaron

He is clad all in rough dirty black
Black socks and shoes too
I am watching him romp around
with greasy
Playfully swatting and tickling
His gray dingy unmentionables poke out
of
worn loose paint splattered denim

'Am I gunna let you win?'
he asks

'Am I gunna lose caus' you're just a baby?'
he asks

He playfully jests whilst tummy poking
'you're cute!'
'you're vicious!'
'you're dumb!'

A man preaches from the speakers
"ALL MUSICIANS ARE COWARDS!!"
"ANGELS!"

fucking great.

Good Feeling

This was written in response to laying on the floor with a bunch of friends listening to 'Good Feeling' by the http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifViolent Femmes.


Orchestral genius lulls your heart and pulls your body to sway
Everyone feels what you feel
We hear your words..
"stay with me.. just a little longer.."
We feel with you..
"it always seems like you're leaving.. when I need you the most.."
Oh how we know
Spirits align
We are
Empathy

The power of music
