Never Alone

I'm Never Alone
3-31-16

Sky high for both feet
I wait till dusk to get something to eat
Estelle has wandered off to somewhere
She's in earnest O, so it seems
So I respond to a familiar voice
A song written to a girl that is and does not
Her name is like a wedding feast
Looking out the window
With a pistachio ice cream cone
I'm never alone
Uphill to make it a thrill
To pull and carry the weight
And I know that I'm living in a happy harmony
A dollar short with chain and collar
I exhort for Damascus and her ally
To yet stumble...




No One Ready
3-31-16

Looking at her till my eyes grow dim
I've done wrong big time
She is not a pair of shoes
One event changer the entire course of history
After seven years we all come back
Are you ready?
None of us are
Battle cries are fallen
A fresh start to another prolific one
Her branches are stretched out still
To bewail the line of Sibmah
We have heard of the pride of Moab
With a toast to the king
Come this cataclysmic event
I'm not giving up without a fight
Are you ready?
No one is....





Damascus And Her Ally
3-31-16

Out of the genius of generosity
Bob Dylan said this
And many before him work and fight to rebuild
The walls in fifty-two days flat and sharp
Sometimes I catch a little too many
To get into her winds of March concluding
Come joy from a plentiful field
They're all long gone only to return
As the world is full of derelicts
Like a feudal lord having more lives than a cat
Making people, not popcorn
The snail got on the ark be perseverance
We get our core values as wind is coming through
Making wild my unconventional hairstyle
Work and fight
Resistance makes one stronger sometimes.....
