a song like the wizard and i

a song like the wizard and i




i truly believe
that the origins of the magna carta
were hidden deep
within
a single individual's heart
simmering there
like a tune or a piece of art.  



of course, 
then along comes those historically messy parts; 
with heads flying, 
and the
obligatory children dying,
while
the earth is frying
underneath it all.  



but like i said before
it was all from a single solitary score
and there can be
so much more
if
one allows oneself to just listen
and not get
too carried away.



so now i'm left pondering if 
he was gay?
or
would mumble it between 
the rocks he'd break?
or
did it sound like
the wizard and i?



and
don't even get me started
on your constitution
and the
wonderful all-round retribution
you passed off as music while tuning
your radios 
to:
let's set match sticks to those native ho's.



for that's a song
nobody
wants to remember
but
everyone 
still needs to know.
