Tacklebox
4-1-16

Fishing is not for knuckleheads
Still walking through this world
No one on earth would ever really know the latest creed
So we believed
Carry that tacklebox and rod
And lean today on the Son of God
For deep, deep blue
Behind a veil of gray
This place is like a dream
Like another world and speculations
The rule is always to give yourself the choice
To go or to decline
All along with the Huntington Cairnses
Have wombs, we will go
I was dismayed when I saw it....




Just For Me
4-1-16

Here's a song of simple songs
Both right and wrong like a coal on our tongs
By the available light come mastery of the clouds
Hardly any today
There's no one here
The governor is gone
I play "Time Out Of Mind" in its entirety
A lucky star shines just for you and I
I was a fool to get that way
Come portents and premonitions
For pride in our pay poor spirited
In that we do care
And left unwritten letters
My uncle was probably out to eat
Logic tells us, baby, it's you....





Go Up And Besiege
4-1-16 

Go up, O Elam
Besiege, O Media
Still here to see the available light
The devil says that this is as good as it gets
But God says that there is always a better place
Carrying the keys to the kitchen in knowledge
In such a life quoting the artists
Like the crumpled better left-unwritten letter
Past Elizabeth city
A tribute to Sister
A skylark for those in three-beat phrases
Time to go country at least for a little while
Go, set a watchman
The new album is growing on me
Discovered in a life of its own
Without imagining....





No Joke
4-1-16

No such cruel April Fools jokes today
O how it must seem
All about my wonderful dream
Dry as air as nigh as care
There is a God
Even when they say it's a hellish world
But I can make it a miracle
I prayed for country artists to write something spiritual
And God came through again
Then he cried, "A lion, my Lord"
Watchman O, what of the dark day
Arise and anoint the shield
Another emblematic ditty
I've got music and chips to throw into the kitty
Who can ask for anything more
Palm branch or bulrush will do....
