White Noise

The horror is coming from inside the house

Tucker Carlson and Sean Hannity

MTG and Donald J Trump

An invocation for our times

No need to call on Bloody Marys and Candymen

Pale ghosts that forgot their white sheets

Pining for their own planned community

Built on an Indian burial ground

Poltergeists in your TV

Don’t bother calling for an exorcism

Too many priests on their side

They’ve become our cross to bear

Don’t fall asleep to their white noise

The devil’s in the static

Ready to pull you in

Pull you under

Pull that white sheet over your eyes

    Too many priests on their side. Ain't that the truth!
