Deburieh

And its praise God at the chime of six
I finally got some rest and a good fix
A silver spoon on a chain
Serves you right so says the devil
Further away from me than Spain
For another endophyte for our camporee
Another wonderful night and new ways to hear and see
To debunk ridicule and expose
I've seen worse things before and Jesus knows
O, Duburieh
What is your real name
In the plain of Esdraelon
In our river valley
Beside ourselves and insane
Come Baalam our destruction
Where godliness is great gain....




Pinchbeck And Piaster
11-24-15

I've got a pair of timberland boots
For my piaster and piece of eight
For pinchbeck alloy of copper and zinc
And things that really make me stop and think
I go all out on my shunpike
I'll buy you another cup of coffee if that's what you like
For crow bait I step up to the mic
Our low-growing evergreen suburb
Our crowberry
Our nainsook and all that it took
With its woven stripe
Remembering how she said
That we would meet again someday
And by the grace of God
For my piaster in my Triassic
I hope to stay in the present moment....
