Tao Lin - A poem written by a bear lyrics

let me go eat some salmon why are there coke cans in the river what if i wore a bullet proof vest during hunting season i'm a bear; i walk in the forest and look at the river and the river is cold i saw campers today and they ran away and i was alone and i destroyed their tent let me go scratch my paw on a tree let me go eat a salmon last night i cried onto my salmon the salmon was sad but it still wanted to live it wanted to swim and be sad and i ate it under moonlight i saw a moose scream the other day it screamed quietly under a tree i felt embarra**ed and sad and i thought, ‘oh, no; oh god, oh my god' sometimes i climb a tree and sit there and sing very quietly sometimes i want to go to a shopping mall and chase the humans and claw them i'll ride the moose into the shopping mall and ram the humans the moose and i will ride the escalator and i will hug the moose and the moose and i will cry i will eat the moose i don't care i will scream and throw the bubblegum machine from the second floor to the first floor i felt compa**ion for the salmon and now i don't care anymore i'll walk into a parking lot and chase a large human and hug the human and cry i'll walk into a house at night and push the humans off the bed i'll stare at the bed and i'll feel fake
