american requiem

# is it a man or is it the man? 
Can we stand for something? 

Or do you just want to sing, 
*“Can you stand the rain?”* *

*Y’all don’t wanna hear me, you just wanna dance … 

Candy rain, purple rain, is 
*drip* *drop* *drip* *drippity* *drop…* ing **down in Cali 
and God 🗣️ your people need you

# Hello, my old friend
Do you believe that evolution is harmony in motion? 

Do you believe in manifestation or delusion? 

Do you believe in God? 

# I do mind dying. 
The extraordinary promise of America lies in our individual desires, dreams, and drive. 

The collective answers the call every morning to be - maybe we are surviving, maybe we aren’t thriving, but we ~~**be**~~ trying. 

My love of country comes from crevices of my mind - the memories of public libraries, free museums, and the yapping I did with friends over free/discounted breakfast & lunch. 

I do mind dying.
