Squelch
3-1-16

Turn at my rebuke
Learn from the gospel of Luke
For our adornment yet in our chains
The stagecoach leaves twenty minutes later
Ice cream, excuse me
I see your looking good to yet squelch and hush
By trampling
Punk or poet
To suppress or inhibit
Our crushing reply
O, you dig it as the smile
Just an hour, do not consent
For wisdom's foundation
The fear of the Lord is reverential trust
But not as being afraid
How long will you love simplicity?




I'm Looking Better
3-1-16

One hour to spare
O, don't be afraid to care
For Israel slides back
Like a backsliding heifer
And Ephraim is joined to idols
And in my looking-glass
Things are looking better
As a looker on a look-in
Of our quick glance to refine and enhance
Their drink is sour
They had committed whoredom continually
And the wind hath bound her up in her wings
Hear ye o priests and hearken
O, do we have another sky to darken
Or should we simply accept the light for what it is
On this sunshiny day
Where Israel is not hidden from us....





Nestor Revisited
3-1-16

When I live I die
For when I give yet I lie
For another Nestor squatter and homesteader
In grazing territory
Tell me, tell me
Give me more
Good to the last drop
Because ye have been a snare on Mizpah
For our undeniable God
Whom made all that we can see
And the revolters are profound
Pussy willows that smile honestly
Israel is defiled
But why all this gloom and doom
When today we have sunshine
I have called you and you did but decline
And you denied all counsel.....
