Does Anybody Dream a Comedy
I'm wakin' up again from a bad nightmare
and I don't think I can fall back asleep
even though it's late, I know I'll be okay
but I'm tired of the same old, same old, tragedy
does anybody dream a comedy
or am I the only one who never has?
is it odd I've never heard a laugh
or a piano playin' Alley Cat
so I'm wonderin' if anybody dreams in comedies
unlike me
the road is dry and boring on this long haul out to west Texas
and I'm itchin' for a break to catch some zzz's
not because I'm tired, no, the situation's...
and I don't think I can fall back asleep
even though it's late, I know I'll be okay
but I'm tired of the same old, same old, tragedy
does anybody dream a comedy
or am I the only one who never has?
is it odd I've never heard a laugh
or a piano playin' Alley Cat
so I'm wonderin' if anybody dreams in comedies
unlike me
the road is dry and boring on this long haul out to west Texas
and I'm itchin' for a break to catch some zzz's
not because I'm tired, no, the situation's...

I'll Meet You Halfway
With a hollow breath in a heavy world
Her faith is a fallen leaf in an early morning light
Love caught in a whirlwind
With a plead to never say goodbye
She cries
Please visit me
Please visit me
If you don't mind
Please comfort me
Look in on me
From time to time
I'll even meet you halfway
If you can't fly this far
For just one day
We'll rest this tired heart
Past the highest clouds
And the furthest star
Between heaven and our house
I'll meet you halfway
Dripping down her...
Her faith is a fallen leaf in an early morning light
Love caught in a whirlwind
With a plead to never say goodbye
She cries
Please visit me
Please visit me
If you don't mind
Please comfort me
Look in on me
From time to time
I'll even meet you halfway
If you can't fly this far
For just one day
We'll rest this tired heart
Past the highest clouds
And the furthest star
Between heaven and our house
I'll meet you halfway
Dripping down her...

Wall of Sleep
I close my eyes
Let the darkness take me in
As I fade away
I hear your voice call out to me
I see you there
A shining light that draws me near
When you went away
My heart was broken for all time
nothing left to say
A million tears still left to cry
When darkness falls
I feel a stirring in my heart
Let the darkness bind us now
On loves eternal shore
Let me hold you close
Just one minute more
Our love can last forever
Behind the wall of sleep
I live my life in dreams
Never will I...
Let the darkness take me in
As I fade away
I hear your voice call out to me
I see you there
A shining light that draws me near
When you went away
My heart was broken for all time
nothing left to say
A million tears still left to cry
When darkness falls
I feel a stirring in my heart
Let the darkness bind us now
On loves eternal shore
Let me hold you close
Just one minute more
Our love can last forever
Behind the wall of sleep
I live my life in dreams
Never will I...

Brandenburg Gate
The air seems stale
The light is clouded
With the heavy veil
Of a broken fate
I walk the gallows walk
One step at a time
Closer to freedoms tale
Of the Brandenburg Gate
The air is fresher the dreams are brighter
The love is sweeter and destiny higher
The pain is lessened and the people don't hate
The long gallows walk to the Brandenburg Gate
The light is clouded
With the heavy veil
Of a broken fate
I walk the gallows walk
One step at a time
Closer to freedoms tale
Of the Brandenburg Gate
The air is fresher the dreams are brighter
The love is sweeter and destiny higher
The pain is lessened and the people don't hate
The long gallows walk to the Brandenburg Gate

TOOT FOR TRUTH
Toot for truth
In all you do
As one who toots his fluted flute.
A shoot for truth
Spooks the mute
As one who blocks truth
Loses a few.
Shrew the truth
Shrewds the brute.
Let’s toot for truth
Like morning dew
Freedom will pay the nightly due.
Paint the truth
Oh, look how cute!
Translucent lights of colorful hues!
In suppressing the truth
Lies the roots
Of the quickly sprouts of venomous fruit
Looted by deceptive gnuts!

FADED GLORY
There it stood on its pole
The red, white, and blue of old
Waving violently against the wind
As it found itself hinged
Intertwined by the blowing air.
The Old Faded Glory still waving there.
Many days of old have come and gone
Standing proud during each patriotic song
The emblem of American ground
Rippling the outroar cries of the warfare sound
Of long ago…dating back centuries of time.
Once gallantly and vibrantly you did stand
When soldiers encamped to conquer the land.
Yet, here you are…still standing as you wave ...
The red, white, and blue of old
Waving violently against the wind
As it found itself hinged
Intertwined by the blowing air.
The Old Faded Glory still waving there.
Many days of old have come and gone
Standing proud during each patriotic song
The emblem of American ground
Rippling the outroar cries of the warfare sound
Of long ago…dating back centuries of time.
Once gallantly and vibrantly you did stand

Yet, here you are…still standing as you wave ...

POLL: THE PRODUCTION LINE
PROMOTION
Speech much like inciting a rebelion
words full of sanctimonius wrath
a form of disguise, substituting motivation
— hear yeah, the wisdom of the righteous
candidates selling themselves off
as the champion of your interest
SALES
The exercise of free choice in democracy
is much like a market of monopoly
where choices are limitted edition only
— vote yeah, the brand of oligarchs
greedy crocodiles who gave away money
In public coffers they profitted greatly
AFTER-SALES ...

Seeing the beauty
A man of many words can inspire lots
with a tiny verse of courage,
A woman has finely tuned emotions,
With unfathom pinpoint intuition,
A neutral being is beautiful to,
With insight to equality,
A naturouse plant that grows all over,
With undying growth, lifes quality,
An for the animals that roam this earth,
Your so wondrous an natural.
There's so much beauty in the world,
From urban town, to land rural,
Keep and accept all the beauty
That you find and seek, for this will,
Enrich your soul and Life's being.

AMOR ETERNO
Te amo, O Dios, con todo mi corazon
Con todo mi mente y mi ser.
Con todo lo que tengo en mi interior
Deseas verdad en lo mas intimo de nosotros
Te amo hasta que la luna no de su luz
Ni el sol su calor.
Hasta que Tu verdad deje de existir
No por ley del hombre
Sino por el fin de la eternidad
Te amare y te alabare porque eres lo mas amoroso que hay en la vida
Aunqu seamos infieles, Tu sigues siendo fiel
Pues, no te nace ni te niegas a Ti mismo
Es Tu verdad por todas las generaciones.
Apesar de todas las cosas, te...

ZEAL OVER ME
Tremble, O Mountains and quiver, O Hilltops!
For the Lord, Himself, has declared
That He is a jealous God!
May the sun shine upon you with its drops of rays
May the rain of His jealousy never touch your way!
May God’s zeal embrace you
May His tender mercies shield you.
Love Him, but don’t you cross Him
For, He has announced, O Mountain of Zion,
He is the Jealous One of Israel.
Do not taste the charcoal grill of His Wrath
For provoking His jealousy earns His wrath.
Though His anger is for but a moment
How catastrophic that...
For the Lord, Himself, has declared

For, He has announced, O Mountain of Zion,
He is the Jealous One of Israel.
Do not taste the charcoal grill of His Wrath
For provoking His jealousy earns His wrath.
Though His anger is for but a moment
How catastrophic that...
