The Skeleton Maze

The Skeleton Maze

I stand on the corner
and watch you walk by
my hand is outstretched
and so is my pride

My heart tears inside

Sometime I feel that its too much
I try to survive
keep my head above water
see all these chains,
I cry out with anger
I watch all your faces
as you rage at these structures

My heart tears inside

The cold seeps into
my bones
always
so
alone

Trapped in the skeleton maze
of our past civilizations
our young are the slaves
of our
corporations

My heart tears inside...

- C. Taylor
[ From "A Voice of Dissent" 1988]

Listen to the song here:

and yes, it is me doing the freaky styley hendrix guitar scream...

Robert Cooper in conversation (2003)

"I remember this homeless guy."
(laughs to Andy Mikita)
"He had no friends, no family really. An artist/writer. When he died he had 3000 people at his funeral...so you never know..."
R. Cooper to C. Taylor on the subject of death, Turk's Coffee patio,
East Vancouver (2003)

"What would you do? When your 'family' does things a family wouldn't do?"
K. McDowell

Someone tries to beat you to death,
it's attempted murder.
When 300+ people try to bring you down and kill you by proxy,
it's just "life".
Try to get justice
and you're "sociopathic".
C. Taylor

I wondered why Amanda Tapping would be laughing at me, there I was standing in the xmas party line to get a beer, and someone I didn't know, who shouldn't have any reason to even notice me, was laughing, gesturing and whispering in R. Cooper's ear. I didn't have anything stuck to my back, I know I looked fine. Then it struck me. She knew the whole story. It was just a great joke to her, all this money being spent, and me, the originator of much of these ideas, with nothing.
I looked all around me at the party then, and I began to see, all the low paid people, the lowly crew, all of them were struggling, they all had serious life problems, their lives were being sucked away by these rich energy vampires...who were laughing...
