Made Up, Comp-letely

Intelligence, bewellingence, either way you get the gist

Long ago gave up the fist, traded a symbol for a cymbal, and stopped holding fifths

I actually thought it had something to miss, an evil kiss, a total dis, like the skin tossed away at a bris

bring it back, heart attack, not enough money, not enough crack, the jail cell, flat on my back

Turn the sail, find a tack, there has to be something of which I lack



blood on snow, where did it go, the reds, and the pinks, and the whites still show

pay the toll, take a stroll, get on a wheel, and let it roll




daily life daily strife, right now someone just hit his wife. she cheated too, it went through,

your choices are entirely up to you. fly around, make some sound, only believe you're glory bound

there is a weight on your neck, don't just let it lead you around





blood on snow, where did it go, the reds, and the pinks, and the whites still show

pay the toll, take a stroll, get on a wheel, and let it roll

take a pill if you will, some of us smoke and make a joke, take a toke, your mind is broke

the companies are like a wheel not a spoke, the funny bloke, the artichoke, the heart is the part

wake up daily, put on your face, find something to fill the space, wear a mask, carry a flask,

just don't give me too many questions to ask





blood on snow, where did it go, the reds, and the pinks, and the whites still show

pay the toll, take a stroll, get on a wheel, and let it roll

blood on snow, where did it go, the reds, and the pinks, and the whites still show

pay the toll, take a stroll, get on a wheel, and let it roll

Try to Love

We all grew up together, whether we liked it or not
We all remember the winters, the summers so humid and hot.

The times we spent at the Falls, the malls, and the parks.
We celebrated our lights, and we comforted other's darks.

Time it means nothing, and the place you're from means less.
The place and the people we carry with us, well
They're simply the best. 

Connected by common places. I remember all of your faces.
Walking the halls to our classes. Some of us now wear glasses.

Some of us had children, and some of them are grown.
No matter where we are going. The town is still our home. 

Time it means nothing, and the place you're from means less.
The place and the people we carry with us, well
They're simply the best. 


Parks  in the summer, the bugs could be a bummer.
Carnivals  in the spring, memories make us sing.

Our fights, our parties, our loves, our loss.
We all get to celebrate, growing olders' costs.

Time it means nothing, and the place you're from means less.
The place and the people we carry with us, well
They're simply the best. 

January Sanctuary

January Sanctuary, the snow and cold take hold

I'd like to have the chance to leave, but the snowdrifts are too bold

I think I'll go inside my house, it's easier to live

Inside there are things I found and the memories they give



What's on your wall, where will you put it all

the shelves must be high, for you really must stand tall




A candle in the bathroom,  a picture by the sink

I can't stand washing dishes, but it's sure nice to think

Wildflowers, pretty pink, I guess I know ya like to drink

I think I'll take a walk outside, enjoy the peace I find

Sometimes people hate so much, only solitude is kind




What's on your wall, where will you put it all

the shelves must be high, for you really must stand tall


The time, the lime, the rhyme, the grime,

Please burn me in the end.

Of all the people that I've known, you are my kindest friend


Smoke takes prayers, and prayers are smoke

cares are  jokes our  jokes our  cares

Just leave your shoes at the bottom of my stairs.

Some times reduction, should probably stop at pairs. 



What's on your wall, where will you put it all

the shelves must be high, for you really must stand tall


The time, the lime, the rhyme, the grime,

Please burn me in the end.

Of all the people that I've known, you are my kindest friend


Take my hand and I'll take yours, I'll even do some simple chores.

Just don't ever forget, the campfires are for smores

A plane can fix some doors, the oceans all have shores, I could maybe buy some stores.




What's on your wall, where will you put it all

the shelves must be high, for you really must stand tall


The time, the lime, the rhyme, the grime,

Please burn me in the end.

Of all the people that I've known, you are my kindest friend

Always Bet on Yourself

Few thousand years ago
Dude named  Ceaser ran the show
He had some stuff  and some friends
His friends they stabbed him in the end.
They weren’t gonna call him king
He wanted  to let freedom ring
He had ideas that’s the thing
They trusted him their song to sing

Just walk into the senate
Keep your eyes on your friends
No matter how life turns out
always justify the ends

little kids eat sweet stuff
 sandpapers not very rough
he loved them all in his own way
fear became murder, historic day

ambition led to the knife
His best friends shed his blood
Calpurnia at home alone
Ceaser full of blood and mud

Just walk into the senate
Keep your eyes on your friends
No matter how life turns out
always justify the ends

few thousand years have gone by
They stabbed Ceaser he did not die
Levels of death, breath, no breath
It’s all about your lack of depth

Brutus got jealous he wanted to rise
In a gaze so strange to us
stabbing his friend , looking in his eyes
The guilt of hate, was his prize.
Little things Over which we fuss
The way out's simple, get off the bus
Put on your toga, and get on your way.  aaaannnnndddd

Just walk into the senate
Keep your eyes on your friends
No matter how life turns out
always justify the ends

Storm King

I almost slid off a mountain, two rocks were in the way
I wish I never had chosen, to go past the sign that day
The first rock went off the mountain, about three thousand feet down
If I took that same drop off, I might not ever be found.

Go get your ass on the mountain, take a swim at the coast
Sunlight, longnight, feels fun, don't wanna fight
life of crime, killing time,  music flows on down the line

I had a few seconds to wonder, what was gonna happen next
This was just a little different, than waiting for my lovers text
Three thousand feet below me, some jagged rocks were out
A few feet from the precipice, I thought what life was about

Go get your ass on the mountain, take a swim at the coast
Sunlight, longnight, feels fun, don't wanna fight
life of crime, killing time,  music flows on down the line

A lone rock now in front of me, as I slid towards the ledge

I knew in that split second, no more living on the edge

Love and light showed the way down, she's waiting for me in a warm town.

I knew I wanted to live, and I shut my ego down

Go get your ass on the mountain, take a swim at the coast

Sunlight, longnight, feels fun, don't wanna fight

life of crime, killing time,  music flows on down the line

The rock somehow , it saved me, it held my weight so fine

That love that that rock gave me, well, it became all mine.

The rock, and the lock, and the stock, and the smock

We all wear them some time, so just get up on the mountain
and everything will be fine!

Go get your ass on the mountain, take a swim at the coast
Sunlight, longnight, feels fun, don't wanna fight
life of crime, killing time,  music flows down the line

Leaving Home

I hail from a semi small town
the folks there think they are renowned
The town is just letters on a map
it's lasting impression, the size of a clap

I had to leave, I had to go
The sky was dark, the wind didn't blow
The trees all slept for half the year
the color gone, replaced with fear

Time to go , time to leave
I got some troubles
you can't possibly beleive

When I left, I took a bus
I rode three time, from dawn to dusk
got off the bus and I was there
I take those troubles everywhere

One day I thought, as I walked
in my mind,  confusion walked
I thought the thoughts, I saw the ghosts
The lake below, gave me the most

Time to go , time to leave
I got some troubles
you can't possibly beleive

The night was cold, the wind it blew.
The way to live, you always knew
find a tree and sit down
forget about that little town

sing a song, walk some more
hear the waves crash on the shore

Time to go , time to leave
I got some troubles
you can't possibly beleive

600 second brain dump

A cascade like a wave
Washing over me.
Minimal resistance
I thought of bending
At the knee

Some think they are blind
Eyes open all the time
Some think they are kind
Bring them a lemon
They ask for a lime

Lemons, limes,
a few chill Rhymes
smiles from a dime
awesome time


Confusion sets in
Then I know, pretty sure I know
Then I know the fun begins
It is this much fun?
like shooting a gun, or chasing the sun?

So many so called sins
Sardines come in little tins
You eat the bones and the fins.


Lemons, limes,
a few chill Rhymes
smiles from a dime
awesome time




What to do where to go
Every day the same damn show
Long hair short hair, broke rich,No one cares. No one fights no one dares. The stares and the glares took all the cares, threw them out along the back stairs.

The light was out. I had to shout . Many strange hazy  shapes, dancing about. The power gone, an unpaid bill. Your daddy spent the money on pills. Society, let's own our ills. Breathe with gills and let the spaces fill. Air water high low where does it end? When did it go? How the hell am I supposed to know?
I read some  books And gave dirty looks. You never returned the shirt you took. I remember the plot but forget the book. A crook by a brook watched a wet dog who shook. Water water every where flying about off the dogs hair. Wine is fine, when it's not mine.
