Orbiting Around Saturn
3-7-17

A hazard to my own health
So the devil says
And as well every step can be a disaster
Feeling better about it
Now in the things that I allow
For the Bee and counterpart her Cow
Brushing the hair out of my face
Sooner or later it's got to go
Wearing the clothes you wanted
To take your name packing off to Skerries
Expecting one more round of flurries
Who's to blame?
Oftener by oneself in outer space
In orbit around Saturn
Of this indignity
Of being a member of the human race....




In Louisville
3-7-17

To be alien to one another
Yet to acknowledge a brother and deny him not
In the presence of Mother in Louisville
At the corner of fourth and Walnut
You know me too well to judge like such
For something in the Deep
It's all amphetamine
To accompany Don Gabriel
It is a glorious destiny
To be a member of Us
This is what I wanted you to see
To cast oneself vast thus you are invited
Into this scandalous secret of Being....






Chief Obstacle
3-7-17

Getting better at killing the clock
Hoping to be on my foundation of the Rock
In the contemplative and the Marxist
No common ground
Now to Praise de Chardon
Look at this, it's me
Walking away from it all
And the water is rising
God keep my wood a burning
Even if it may be yet green
As we new friends are offering
The things I never dreamed
Within the community
All compassion begins at home
Sending out prayers to the west side
O, butterfly of new pride
Come along for the ride sometime soon....
