use your word

Use Your Word
4-14-16

I'm no good without me
Walking a ragged mile
Looking for someone to be a blessing to
God have me to shine today
Tugging at my own sleeve
O, how will I escape
Blood brother has got your mare
O, please send me a friend
Of when I make the initiation
Today on the man of the world
I only remember five of the eight wonders
Wake her up with that white chocolate Easter bunny
O, use your word and of such write something new
No voting next Tuesday
It's too late
I'm registered republican
To be the hypotenuse
Be of good cheer
Your sins are forgiven...




Chortle (A Spanking)
4-14-16

Hunting her down by the water front docks
To affections and to facilities into twenty fifteen
More insane journaling
My greatest ideas come when I am indisposed
Thinking about lobster with Mother
Looking not on ones own interests
But that of others
His preaching can be like a spanking
So I would chortle
Singing a song like a bird seemingly immortal
All that you can hear
We live in a culture of judgment
And that's not church
Tea didn't do it for me
Arise take up the pallet and walk
Why do you think evil in your hearts....




Eye Opener
4-14-16

Spur of the moment
Crack of the dawn eye opener
Dew on the lawn
The potion for motion
And the thought stems the emotion
Spring water in our mountain bosom
Swells down the backroads heading north
So I can pour my blessings forth
I wouldn't break my neck over it, man
O, who was Ephesus
But someone I didn't quite know at the time
Back in the ditch with blood on your saddle
Seven poems already at four in the morning
Another dream of waking
Lord, what can I do for you in this
Because it hurts to remember
The reminiscing brings me down....






Get Out Of Bed At Five
4-14-16

Put on a little Dylan
Kissed by the howling dealt
And the pain I rise above
For days of glory
And all nighters of splendor
O, they tell me the where and when  and the why
And the who will take care of itself
In missing you at the chime of one
I open a window until the day is done
As memories steam my brain
And another war is won
Between the den and its surface
For dragon clouds breathing fire to stay afloat
This is life
Get up out of bed and make the coffee
Before I step back in from my first smoke...
