TEXAS (it's all big)

There are men who sit in peace
Some revel yet ape their views
They offer a difference of change
To the hate that smells the news

They might besmirch their perch
Down crossed legged and chanting
Their humility resembles a
Metaphysical ranting

To think how stretching truth
Helps God relate to man
We might approve only if it's
Worldly and most of us can

Mother carries conceived baby
The fetus here life in its stage
Some say sure just hurt yourself
Here we're killing minus the rage

Don't kill the cow or slice the pig
Inhumanity reeks from your tongue
Say that you would eat only nuts
And make shampoo out of your young

Lacking vaudeville I'm tired and old
And I too would just want to sit
For the askew I think I'll ask you
Should I cross legs or just do my bit
