Treat Of Tax
1-19-09

Some say that Obama is the antichrist
If this is so
So be it and so what
We owe a debt of gratitude
For the man that invented bread sliced
The average American wants his tax cut
People that make this much money ought not complain
The sky is soon condensed
May as well let fall the freezing rain
It is what it is
So my former boss used to say
The skies are dark yet I still consider it day...




Freethinker

Proud of the scar my cat made upon my upper lip
I am blunt over nachos at my table
I still double dip
Disrespecting all conventional rules
Much yet to learn from both old and new schools
We can utter obscenities in our English class
If by it we can prove a point
We can mess around in woodshop
As by trial and error we learn to build our rabbet joint
Teacher was deaf from a lifetime of working with machines
The playwright omitted the undesirable scenes.....





Gift Of Music
1-19-09

We confront the tiff and huff
As such a quarrel is appeased by a catchy organ riff
Music is a gift
Next to eating it is the best
Gives me boldness to stick it out on my shift
May us consult the quarter note and the half rest
Wine is conducive for taking it all in
We see the benefits to partake
We make excuses for our sin
Fire and ice
It is naughty and nice
Even the bad kids ought to get a present from Santa
When all fall short from the glory....




Life Is More Than Making A Living
1-19-09

May us learn the lesson of giving
But we must learn how to receive just as well
We need to learn to exist and not just make a living
May us lay down our lives
To give God thanks for letting us live to tell
Hippies and brothers are yet to be met along the way
As only by a pretense and our façade do we ourselves betray
A made a new friend
A lady invites me to her place for dinner
No one is exempt from unwholesome thoughts
Every soul is a dirty rotten sinner...
