OCCUPY

MIND
I thought I was dreaming.  But it was only news of the day rattling around in my semi-conscious trying to make sense of current chaos.
It woke me.

BODY
Occupied with coming and going,
going nowhere doing something.


PLACE
The round table I occupy - where I work, eat, write and play with art supplies



"OCCUPY"
by Appalachia Rising
"Soon I will be done with the troubles (repeat, the repeated as harmony) Soon I will be done with the troubles of the world, with the troubles of the world, the troubles of the world. Soon I will be done with the troubles of the world... Gonna occupy my mind, No more weeping and a-wailing, no more seeking salvation, no more weeping and a-wailing... Gonna occupy my mind. No more weeping and a-wailing, no more big bank bailing, no more weeping and a-wailing... Gonna occupy my mind. Occupy Appalachia and occupy the bayou, Occupy your sound waves cos we will not be lied to, Occupy your bank account and occupy your healthcare, Occupy your garden cos oh my dear you best beware, Occupy your mother tongue and occupy your neighborhood, Occupy reality, delivered up the best you could, Occupy your homelands, occupy your public schools, Occupy the pen and ink, occupy the law and rule Occupy Wall Street, occupy your corner store, Occupy the sound waves, occupy your front door, Occupy Wall Street, occupy your basic rights, Occupy the front lines and when it's time step up to fight, Soon I will be done with the troubles of the world, with the troubles of the world, the troubles of the world. Soon I will be done with the troubles of the world... Gonna occupy my mind, No more weeping and a-wailing, no more seeking salvation, no more weeping and a-wailing... Gonna occupy my mind. No more weeping and a-wailing, no more big bank bailing, no more weeping and a-wailing. Gonna occupy my mind. Soon I will be done with the troubles."
