			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I opened this poem with a yawn<br />
thinking how tired I am of revolution<br />
the way it&#8217;s presented on television<br />
isn&#8217;t exactly poetry<br />
You could use some more methedrine<br />
if you ask me personally</p>
<p>People should be treated personally<br />
there&#8217;s another yawn<br />
here&#8217;s some more methedrine<br />
Thanks! Now about this revolution<br />
What do you think? What is poetry?<br />
Is it like television?</p>
<p>Now I get up and turn off the television<br />
Whew! It was getting to me personally<br />
I think it is like poetry<br />
Yawn    it&#8217;s 4 AM yawn  yawn<br />
This new record is one big revolution<br />
if you were listening you&#8217;d understand methedrine</p>
<p>isn&#8217;t the greatest drug no not methedrine<br />
it&#8217;s no fun for watching television<br />
You want to jump up have a revolution<br />
about something that affects you personally<br />
When you&#8217;re busy and involved you never yawn<br />
it&#8217;s more like feeling, like energy, like poetry</p>
<p>I really like to write poetry<br />
it&#8217;s more fun than grass, acid, THC, methedrine<br />
If I can&#8217;t write I start to yawn<br />
and it&#8217;s time to sit back, watch television<br />
see what&#8217;s happening to me personally:<br />
war, strike, starvation, revolution</p>
<p>This is a sample of my own revolution<br />
taking the easy way out of poetry<br />
I want it to hit you all personally</p>
<p>like a shot of extra-strong methedrine<br />
so you&#8217;ll become your own television<br />
Become your own yawn!</p>
<p>O giant yawn, violent revolution<br />
silent television, beautiful poetry<br />
most deadly methedrine<br />
I choose all of you for my poem personally</p>
