"I know true love don't love like anybody else
I know your heart don't beat like anybody else
It all comes down to kerosene and sorry signs on cash machines"
--Mason Jennings
under the guise of chaos we rise
smokelike and multicolored
with our noses seeking one another
spite in the face of spite
hope in the face of hope
and in the muttered language of
the Angry Men we hear them:
the drooping lives of flowers,
the dying tides of strained credulity
and wheels on red land
I know your heart don't beat like anybody else
It all comes down to kerosene and sorry signs on cash machines"

under the guise of chaos we rise

the dying tides of strained credulity
