Riviera
1-14-17

On coastal town of Irish Rivera
I salute those who fought for our rights
To do our own thing
With resilience and ability to recover from the setback
And make a comeback
Jacob wrestles a man till daybreak
Therefore we do not eat present in full force
A tragedy near poverty for Dylan late and early
Calling it Peniel
Meaning face of God
My life is preserved
The odds are in my favor
That I will know another victory  on Tuesday
And we are called the greatest rope-a-doping....




Salt Of The Earth (Rural Man)
1-14-17

At sunrise I halt
Not always wise to add salt
For time flies when oneself to but yet exalt
Come sinew and tendon and chocolate malt
Touching the hollow socket of Jacob's thigh
It's about to start snowing, my o, my
Where perfidy is the virtue
And mutiny is as value
Now I am but a rural man
Seeing your light come shining
By the coastal town of Spring Lake
We find it but never mind it as we grind it
Start with a fresh batch in the morning
As the palate of hate departs and I am just me
Rope-a-doping....




Hiphip And Vive
1-14-17

Junior foliage disrespectful
But no intended treachery to venerable birds
Killing two with one stone of the assembled multitude
For vanity to divulge
You say it's deep but I have only scratched the surface
For idleness on a snowy Saturday afternoon
Our antiquated tree
Children on the highway
It never stops
Remaining indomitable
Hiphip and vive along the train tracks
A pizza crust
Remembering the details
The Spirit help our infirmities
When we know not what to pray
Groaning inside me....
