i am now 30 in the solar judeo christian calendar

what is love
baby don't hurt me
but really
i know you for 10 years
i love you
more than i love people that didn't show
for over a quarter century
yeah that's right
the 30
the dirty
dirty
and of course i am drunk
yeah i did some of that jim beam
im not stepping back
it was good to see you john kennedy
i did some of that weed
and i was 5 dollars
yeah i was
here in america
i am 30 right not
this instant
in the way we keep time
smokey bear says only you can prevent forect fires
and if i could only live alone with you
with our friends
in a close warm space...

in light of the fact that it's nearly my birthday

i am backpedaling as much as i can
into rose hips
and flower tips
back from thirty
back from the dirty dirty
