Pelops

Pelops
5-20-16

Hope, faith or vanity
Our Pelops son of Tantalus
I will not drink of the fruit of the vine
Until all is fulfilled
All men should be offended in thee you
I will not yet sing the hymn again
Nor wake up to the smell of coffee
I go before you into Galilee
The greatest gift is you
What did men mean by the original
O, sons of Zebedee
Be my naked flame
Where the strands fall sorrowful
And heavily oppressed....




On Matthew 26:43
5-20-16

Naked in the clothes you made
Taking it to the extremes
Feeling good to know it before it was
And now just because
And he came back and found them asleep
And their eyes are heavy
Go now and take your rest
Son on your birthday weekend
You give me shelter from the heat and the dust
My new game is called all the way around
No more water in the well
Is was just another bad dream
As I take it to the extreme....






Priestly
5-20-16

Rise, let us be going
Wise in what we are later on to be knowing
Lies, as so the truth is growing
Behold He is at the hand that doth betray Me
O, wail master
I give too this kill on our hobbyhorse view
Approbation, praise and official approval
Wouldn't it be scary if Bono grew a beard
For our gossamer in the air
Or caught on grass of bushes
The poet pushes
Looking for Priestly
And look what he has found
Like in discussion of concerns
Come soft, sheer gauzy fabric delicate
Nothing left but to moan like the river....
