Camp Fire

All come gather around the fire All come gather around the flame Before we had cell phones Shit before we had phones Before we had light bulbs To light up our homes We sat in a circle And stared at a bright flame Contemplated another day done And reset our brains Now the days never done And there's always an email As long as the path from the sun As long as a snakes tail We are running faster to catch up like batteries But we are running camera So we are on half of the calories Gotta feed our families With Salaries or labor at factories So our commonalities Get turned into divided Calamities Maybe you just need a break Maybe you need an escape Just sit on this log And se this stick as a rake As you dig through the ashes Try not to think of your work Try not to think of your image Just think of the dirt In an age of screens and hustlers And political liars When the world seems like it's in flames Just light a camp fire Gather around the fire All come gather around the flame All come gather around the fire All come gather around the flame
