Jesus Claus 04:07
It’s not Jesus Claus Or Moses Claus That’s just a symbol Taken from Adaptations In time Divided us Lucifer Have you heard? It’s nobody’s Christmas And you belong Just as much As I You tried to scare me with a cross And a burned out Menorah Your attempt to twist the word Has lasted enough When this advent’s for all of us Ever since Ignorance can’t pass for intentions The equality of corporate greed Expands my conviction Finally We’re set free From lines of division I was taught You were wrong That’s a lie So lay down the bells To gather this thought To bask in the sorcery Of all that’s become Of what was once Meant for us
2.
Hallmark Hot 04:50
The evidence you care Is written in the clothes you try on The evidence is right there Hidden in the nylon I chose The threads Mistletoe Green & red I show some leg And it’s for you The compliments you bare In every piece of clothes you try on Compliments are right there Controlling what I wear I chose Instead My low cut dress It goes With everything I do
3.
The ways you felt When you tried to say goodbye Reveals a pattern Unveils itself To gladly tune it out What they could write Laced in gold The unsettled dilemma My face It aches It’s old Now you know The things I put online Were not inside me That’s when you decide To tweet on Christmas morning And never, never gonna take it down Nothing you devise Can keep it from your mind Into your heart it slips And crawls along your sweater Where I’d rather be sown Be tied To your hip The hardest part is when you begin A threads that lauds The things that couldn’t bind you here In the softest light It’s clear That you know this isn’t right And how much I wanna show you what’s up With my mom and the fam But I can’t hide from that So I don’t It’s the posts of Christmas past Coming back When you reply Is there something else On your mind
4.
I am about to bury this thought Under the soul planted in the yard Glare in the snow assuming it shines There to invoke the spirit inside That goes Released from doubt From this echo Lingering energy The call is in the ice And the pull is in the weather A voice in the fire That glows Unaware when you invite Who’s to say who might Come inside Oh Santa I know it isn’t you That laughter and cold flooded the room Hosanna for feelings in the dark Hosannas are from the planet Mars I offer and gladly sacrifice To this alter and know it isn’t Christ Which messiah is pulling at your heart These messiahs are pulling me apart
5.
Julius I 04:44
6.
I cling to the pull of And implore the same source as the sun Look Hold this inside My desire Changed into fog Reminding us Here Keep this inside you To accept the curse To return My spirit, quality, and care is embalmed Love that pours out of me but doesn’t move on Bound through technology Each Christmas coming true To bring back the part of me When my bodies through I’ll keep loving you That’s what makes it possible I’ll keep loving you forever When the ether sends a portal I pictured a vineyard in France To endure the winter in space To reach her I remember your face right there I pictured a vineyard and a snake
7.
Lace sells itself Think “Jingle Bells” You’re quiet because you know White magic sells That infant’s smile Destroyed a lot To revive this and vow I plan to explain how The pageant messiah Is blasphemy now And restore the true Pagan attitude Lifted from doubt To carefully plan out What’s still true for me In cherished time Focusing Left to hearts that bind us To Christian imagery And taste this Killer guy Stellar dude Who only reeks of love That poem leads to such a waste Of material that says I Guess what I couldn’t deny That’s true That’s right It’s no use
8.
Anointed cherub Sapphire Turquoise and emerald Holy mountain above Resembles Jasper and onyx This Christmas I call Jesus out by Carving a seven Questions are Melting in my next horoscope Son of God’s Serpentine Thoughts align Anointed hair of this child Burned as a symbol Only countering love is ten fold Cast your faith on it This Christmas I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven The morning star Mounted on the back of Leo Sun of dawn Made to fly It’s almost The time To further the call Up close This guy Would never ever ever Hide from the thought That us both Have cried Selfishly bawled For the right To carve my Own reality That goes southern The fall designed by me And gifts I burn Dissolve around the tree And blend together The star of Christmas Eve And forever
9.
Pointing towards the baby Jesus Heaven in view and seeing double Christ adored in this constellation Starts to move around you And I slept the whole night through Knowing that you’re real Knowing you’re lonely and watching And I wept for the loss of truth And for the cross And for the call When it’s gone This sight That could send My love through a satellite That repeats and returns What the sweetest signal sent That this cross Now a farce When you go to compare to why I’m hollow Broken by What’s revealed just by the sight of
10.
It’s a chi Just a sign That was recycled and used It isn’t like By grammar i’ll Be completely doomed It isn’t like Jesus might be able To read the lines Cause greek is like, much older right? And then a rho To reap and sow Spoiled truth His heart That shines About time That it does something right This love Cuts through Translations and floats around you Hissed lie That’s cheap And won’t compete with the inner meaning It’s time you enjoyed yourself Despite what you keep believing Pulling the hope Literal trope Meant to prove somebody Wrong when they wrote Christmas is only happening to me Language I speak Negates what I mean Despite believing In everything In every reason for christmas parties Start with the C Nothing missing And probably wouldn’t mean anything Without the mean spirit of translating Further the scheme “Promote the king” Who happens to agree Symbols only mean What you decree And have no power over me
11.
I could use December Couldn’t you Remind me How it felt How you knew What’s it’s like How to spend Summer days After this Forever One month Is not enough And I believe That if we were able You would not And I would not Ever leave Making this possible And the torch That you carry Into March In your heart Is going to Run out eventually
12.
This year That aligns Came from love I can almost touch It’s good to know And good to see you Like it always was Don’t give me math Beginning to seep through What I saw at last This year I don’t even wanna know What’s beneath the Christmas cheer Brain is the source of self And Mars is the source of power I long Long to exalt you now You six dimensional Six minerals I won’t forget Staying psychically tethered To what was already gone Where ever I survive And make surpassing natural To wave Away The dust Whatever you combine To reach by casting astral Thought waves That make Us touch
13.
14.
King Herod staring at the moon You know he wants so bad to meet you This sage advice Is not enough Bring me this child King I ask the stars To know for certain The best parts Have all come and gone So I think And resolve To crawl through Bethlehem Hardened to kill What these three astrologists knew To pay the messiah a visit And then decide To cover you Intensifies faith In birth charts And comfort drawn from Saturn So I think Is is wise To devise a pattern And yes I will
15.
This is why I can’t protect you From the dark Prayers invoke And invite the spirit to Come alive So I can be with you In his arms Where I hold What you knew Santa’s not the source of light He was always with you He’s a guide Piece of truth Demonstrates Power within you Let’s me down too Just to see That the options are Human ecstasy And the faith That I choose To embrace The imbalance of multitude In the moon Now it’s you I see On a broom I’m interpreting this sign And all that is says Is “Have a Merry Christmas” There’s a lot to peel around There’s a lot of decisions I wasn’t there for But live in an impending mystic swarm And I’m glad if it fixes it with salt Maybe I should have grown inside a loop For the record I’m not upset at all And I’m here to be used For the service of The secret of Luke That Jesus was Human too And made into A higher absolute It’s ok because It empowers us To love you
16.
I'm fed up With the call of the season Had enough Talk of miracles Why shouldn't I Seek results and reasons Why should I At least consult With a demon And walk right up To this psychic appointment How'd you know What I'm here for I could go For a seance Flume of smoke That you rode on thundered Then it's gone But you linger And now I know You're inside of the thought you gave me I return To attend the midnight service Something burns In the beads on my chest What's the reason If it's already working For my guilt If it's already gone And I know That it has to be you I'm hearing So tell me once To prove me right Was it "Echoes" or "Crazy Diamond" You used to spin Over and over and over again And then you smile And draw me in Cause you and I both know It's "Us and Them"

There is a specter haunting Christmas Caught between Two masters of flesh Pulling at them Pulling seams I woke up from this vision To this vicious capitalist greed Root of evil You unequal Get behind me Santa Get behind me Eagles Root of envy And Christmas greed Get behind me Bezos Get behind me Jeffery Was it Jesus Or was it Marx Who'd speak "Each according to their needs" Oh wait That's right It's both And that goes for everything That goes for all eternity Careless advertiser Selling Christmas To bourgeoisie True merchants of plush Selling Catholics Worthless things I'm uncomfortable with it With this service And have to leave Root of sinful Feeding impulse Get behind me Copeland Get behind me Osteen Ruled by envy And Christmas greed Get behind the temple And know that Christmas is free
19.
Glad because you knew Christmas doesn't die And neither will you I can already feel you inside Living in my steps Floating on my breath Glad because I knew That you never left And I wanna give you credit But you already know I struggle with the message And forgiveness So much of the time I'm held back with All I had to hide That brought it on You were so so so right About this auric karma That's been sticking to me What did you expect Sigil on your chest Satan in your head Already in control This pursuit was hexed And I assume I'm next All the visions I get are tired and banal But pay attention lest I'll have fifty legs One of them in each of what does not dissolve One of them is bliss One of them is sin All the fleeting melodies are tearing me up It's evolved now cause you say it's you In the fog I try to reach through See the fright See the frozen Color gone from your eyes I wonder Is it just you Who's under The claw of a lie I wonder The others The others Collected by The mother Of charred Earth Forever Feeding on you The power The master The coward Above all else With all My thoughts With Sloth And ten flowers I walk into The black circle of this ritual I wake up to the trances of the devil Who complains "you aren't here in my name" I wake up to him shaking my hand and saying "I am with you, what will it take?"
20.
When he then evens out the heather He can't even doubt the demon This piece of the seventh seal Is made of wood And should So take this And leave me forever
21.
Snow Curse 06:11
22.
Flow through me And hold me again Hopeless efforts That come from within Won't sustain me And already fade Cold Angry And always afraid Of what's inside Floating above me Warm glowing light Showing the folly Of forgetting I'm Only a piece of Everyone in sight Call it Jesus Or Mars If you like
23.
Mary's horoscope Says what you already know Mary's horoscope Doesn't change the way I hold This child My wife She says Ain't mine God bless this child Who turns my water to wine You'll be a wonderful mom And I look forward to paradise Hung by the side of the road Strung by Orion's lasso I will Not fight Your will Is mine To be done To rely upon You are an Abraham And I am another Sarah Followed each part of the plan Except for the part about harems See in the palm of his hand There is a floating candle Changed with the sign of Pluto Carved in the arm to swear There is a path after all And pain comes to make you strong Waters a magic root Blooming and growing inside of you
24.
There's truth in your sermon But the thing is This isn't a weapon You idiot Don't give me a present Then jump from within To give me your recruiting tactics Seven six six six seven Christmas is at war with heaven Discover the serpent Covered in sin And tell him "Merry Christmas" Don't accept any blessing clearly curled To the earthly and stressing weary world Now isn't the season For getting even So give forgiveness a whirl Not the kind with Those conditions That say you're gonna burn For the things that you thought Using the wrong name for God That's no forgiveness at all six six Christmas six Jesus is the number seven Certain poor shepherd Zealous as ever Who spoils All the fun For the Christians
25.
Hark! The herald teeth sing Glory to the tri-tone king This guitar Paired with a harp Played with a feather Played awaiting the king Finally Slithering Back into the Earth Leading me To the tree And out of the claw Of controlling Elohim It's time to back off And watch As he flew Through the ether To my arms Just to say that "I love you, And the savior Now is born on Christmas day" What's inside you that could do any better And knows exactly when to leave It evolves to bring the powers of your arms An inner-fire That you breathe With the five symbols on you And know they're Harnessed on Christmas eve Made you full of intuition That you stood up And just leave
