Look
Look at all the space 

Let’s look 
Let’s look for a gooood place
A place to play and stay and wash and run and
Raise
A place to raze.

This is a great place 
Isn’t it?

All this space
Look: we need a place. 
Like a base, something.
There’s so much space just look
And think
About where to place our necessaryyyyy
Items

We need a system
For all our items
We need a base 
For all this 
Data
We need a data base

Yes.
Yea, 
I say
I vote yay
On this place this space this data space 
This way to place and play and raze.
We’ll tally and parry and party and feed our face.
It’ll be great.
This place of ours just ours
This base. This home
Homebase 

Safe! 
We feel safe
We voted yay
We made hay while the sun shone down on our face and we set ourselves up.
We set a place to stuff our mouths up.
We said grace to stay safe
Our base was clean and tidy and
No one
No one could erase this moment in space and time
Ours only ours
Our data
Our place 
Our sweet fresh safe creation
Our base

============================
Stumble out the front door with the 
helpful guidance of the wrong end 
of the bartender’s bad temper 
thank you very much sir 

daylight never was a friend and now it seems 
it’s found me at my most defenseless shrinking 
sick along the sidewalk trying to avoid the 
church to hide my sins to wash the bourbon 
off my breath (and) try to 

kill the last remaining mem-o-ry of everything that came before 
the cities and the railroad and the immigrants who stole 
my Jesus-given right to find my way avoid the light is not my 
friend today tonight cannot come quick enough 

the mem-o-ries creep back now even quicker and demand some stronger liquor 

(but there’s)

Seven sisters watching over everything I do 
I know they’re calling for me from their constellation seven patient sisters

Each one lives inside one of these brimming glasses once more set before me on the rail I see them run I shoot them down with eager hunger 

seven sisters chasing me for killing seven sisters chasing seven sisters killing me  they run I shoot them all I 

chase them shoot them down and kill them all I killed them all they chase me down for killing me I shoot them down for watching over me and 

killing seven sisters killing seven sisters kill them all I kill them all I kill them all I kill them all I kill them all 

I kill them all 
I kill them all
And all
And all
….
