Make Waves
Words 2010, music 2013

lyrics

He sends them in, pounding
Each one bends a whim, sounding
the clear tones of his purpose

A crash and the next one follows,
all but swallowed
by the rare success of an overreach;
each successive try shy

Though not to flout his energy spent,
she’ll not relent

You must make waves, make waves!
Yes, yes, of course, you must make waves!
Or maybe you should just sit down!

She piles the grains, building
Her erstwhile remains filling
the hole space of her progress

Upheave and the work completed:
a home replete with functional ease—practicality!
These practically hide—deride—
each crystal’s irreplicable rage

It crumbles, she defies—unique—
his blunt critique

You must make waves, make waves!
And after that you must make waves!
Or maybe you should just sit down!
You must make waves, make waves!
Above all else you must make waves!
Or maybe you should just give up!
