even in the sordid sense    subcultured anti-picket fence    some picket lines remind me of a densely packed parade    while constellations changing shape    opinions spin like a sufi cape    one whirling dervish swerves into the churning sea          where he meets me snorkel in my mouth    rubber flippers sifting through the sands of a deep south beach          and i'm so inconceivably out of reach    unbelievably, irretrievably committed          the protest put the people first    the people put the people down    a dumb bit of luck for all the trouble just to fuck themselves    so put your finger to my lips    stick your hands into your hips    tell me no, tell me so i can go home to catch a show about          where to find me the words in my mouth    vacationing with tourists through the land of a deep south beach          and i'm so inconceivably out of reach    unbelievably, irretrievably committed         and i'm so inconceivably out of reach    unbelievably, irretrievably released          deep south beach   deep south beach   deep south beach   deep south beach
