Madonna Revisited | Stan Morrison

the bathtub’s filled with oatmeal
it has to be some kinda mistake
life’s perverse vignettes
are more than I can take
it’s a no-integrity world
i’m not a no-integrity girl

all one-way roads converge
leaving me no way to turn
a modern disaster of design
it’s apparently of no concern
it’s a supercilious kinda world
I’m no supercilious kinda girl

everyone says they’re in the minority
numerically it can’t work out that way
your calculators are so useless
so smile and have a happy day
it’s a prime number sorta world
i’m a multi-factorial kinda girl

Politics and Integrity | Stan Morrison

Trust and betrayal are not polar opposites
Rather, they work like a neat pair of choices
Both are in play in a fixed game of cards
While everyone bets against a loaded deck

Trust and betrayal have congruent contours
Operating like some cosmic Yin and Yang
As inevitable consequences of each other
Close your eyes, gaze into the kaleidoscope
