Lotus Gait - Propagandhi
I have this recurring nightmare
Flailing pigeon her broken feet
Frozen solid to the freezing pavement
I turn away as if I do not see
I have this childhood memory
Of my old man screaming
From the drivers seat
To turn away from an unfolding horror
But he could not undo what I had seen
We never spoke of it again
Two more hapless citizens of
The new post-traumatic
Stress worldwide disorder
A stockholm syndrome fifth estate
Desperate to batten
Down the mounting horrors
And shuffle on in a global lotus gait
Content to marinate
In the plasma glow of the
Home entertainment prisons we
Commune before like dime-store shrines
Are these but votive lives
A strangled twisted truss
That shores-up each of us
Anything to dull the pain
Of a splintered lotus gait
As for me a filigree of psychic police tape
Tends to cordon-off the darker scenes
But the wandering mind stumbles through it
And relives them all eventually
Pries open wide your eyes
And shines a painful light
On the guilt the fear the shame
The courage never came
From the plasma glow of the
Home entertainment prisons we
Cling to like dime-store shrines
Are these but votive lives
Conservative at heart
A conformist from the start
A stockholm syndrome fifth estate
A staggering lotus gait
It's a strangled twisted truss
That shores-up each of us
So anything to dull the pain
Of a self-inflicted crippling lotus gait
