It’s getting harder  To know where to drop the bombs…Saturday / November 23, 2014 #SchwervonPoetry

Fight for a voice 
Fight for a choice 
Fight for your right

Fight to fight 
Stay up all night
Scream until your face turns blue
Talk talk talk talk
So much to be angry about
So much to fear 

It’s getting harder 
To know where to drop the bombs 

It’s getting harder to scream
Without disturbing 
Someone you love 

It’s getting harder to love 
Without pissing someone off

It’s getting harder to love 
Getting pissed off

Piss love
It’s getting better all the time

Take a bite of the apple
Have your piece of the pie 

Forget your keys
Lock yourself into the love
Machine
Let’s spread it around
Like a Nutella highway
Let’s smear the love
And the luck it off each other

Dance in the disco grass
Go back and revise 
The cave paintings
With more color
More fire 
More warmth 

I understand the words by looking 
At your face

(This poem was originally recited on November 23, at A House in Herdecke, Germany)
