                  Take socialism. A social reform. 
                      Are you feeling the shock of being embedded in a dream, 
                      a high-pitched scream? Rescue missions everywhere, but no 
                      one has money to spare. And mermaids flicker scales of jewels 
                      measured by colour on the West Coast, it's all a hoax, hallucination, 
                      and I don't feel the death. And I don't feel destruction 
                      in this land of nomadic escape, wide open rape. I read the 
                      New Testament and gave it up for Lent, all the things I 
                      never did just to pay my rent. Socialism. My yoga master 
                      smoked crack before teaching today. I ignored it, I had 
                      to ignore it, couldn't help but ignore it,  
                      even though her hair was falling out in clumps. Well I do 
                      not weave escape with toxic waste, my body is pure from 
                      a ritualistic sweat, and I can smell the hell on everyone 
                      else. Brain aneurism, blurry nightime vision. Diagnose me 
                      – is it extreme organization, or anxiety disorder? 
                      Am I living in the past, present, or future? Or is the top 
                      of my head 
                      being lifted by the Most High, divine inspiration, 3rd eye 
                      flow-squad. 
                      See, I’ve often felt like a Girl Jesus, except 2 times 
                      I’ve been beaten and strung. It’s the politicians 
                      in suits who keep killing my Indian blood – they string 
                      me up by my hands and give me stigmata on National holidays. 
                      Socialism.
