Here's this week's bonus poem. Right, right, right on time.
The opposite of Madonna
Something is telling me
To sit tight and shut up
For now
Don't wish too hard
For anything in particular
Dreams should be unspecific
Goals should be ambiguous
Instead of being determined
To control the situation
Just pull out your pad and pencil
And scribble at will
Stare out the window
At the scenery
And leave the driving
To us

Monday's Son
Here's this week's bonus poem. Hope you enjoy.
Consider the lillies? What fucking lillies?
This is no place for a philosopher
Or someone who considers the state of mankind
It's strictly carrot or stick around here
One or the other
Will get you in the end
Happy to be part of the machine
At least it's a job
They say
As they turn on the showers
With no safe haven except within
I brave my face as best I can
Trying not to let the loneliness and anger
Register my expression
Although it's a failed pursuit
Besides
Everyone's already made up their mind
That I'm either the town crier
Or the psycho next door
Consider the lillies? What fucking lillies?
This is no place for a philosopher
Or someone who considers the state of mankind
It's strictly carrot or stick around here
One or the other
Will get you in the end
Happy to be part of the machine
At least it's a job
They say
As they turn on the showers
With no safe haven except within
I brave my face as best I can
Trying not to let the loneliness and anger
Register my expression
Although it's a failed pursuit
Besides
Everyone's already made up their mind
That I'm either the town crier
Or the psycho next door
