The Eagle's Cry
You know that iconic eagle cry,
That you hear in the movies?
You’ve all heard it before!
You know that desert scene,
With the tumbleweed?
As the lone ranger rides off into the sunset,
A fierce cry pierces the sky!
"Kreeeeeeeeeeeeeer"
A bald eagle flies overhead.
I hate to burst your bubble,
But that's actually a Red-Tailed Hawk
Acting as his double!
I guess the Eagle’s subtle call
Just couldn't make the cut...
That you hear in the movies?
You’ve all heard it before!
You know that desert scene,
With the tumbleweed?
As the lone ranger rides off into the sunset,
A fierce cry pierces the sky!
"Kreeeeeeeeeeeeeer"
A bald eagle flies overhead.
I hate to burst your bubble,
But that's actually a Red-Tailed Hawk
Acting as his double!
I guess the Eagle’s subtle call
Just couldn't make the cut...

Eternal Regret
I built all of these walls around our love
All of these clouds were supposed to be temporary
My vision got worse & my words slipped on deaf ears
Inside & outside i'm screaming out of tune
As the fog settled in
So did the confusion
Rage of pain paints the landscape
I can't seem to escape the mirage
Will this be my Eternal Regret?
My beautiful what is happening to our love
If it is so present then why does it feel so distant?
I feel so paralyzed of the thought of you deserting
I'm suffocating on all of these...
All of these clouds were supposed to be temporary
My vision got worse & my words slipped on deaf ears
Inside & outside i'm screaming out of tune
As the fog settled in
So did the confusion
Rage of pain paints the landscape
I can't seem to escape the mirage
Will this be my Eternal Regret?
My beautiful what is happening to our love
If it is so present then why does it feel so distant?
I feel so paralyzed of the thought of you deserting
I'm suffocating on all of these...

Second Best
I was in love with your smile, your voice,
Your body, your laugh
And the way your eyes undressed me.
You reminded me what butterflies felt like
How ordinary moments can feel so magical
And what an extraordinary experience it was
To have someone make me feel
So much better about myself
Or even how someone special
Could bring my smile back.
The connection felt so real
As rare as a blue rose.
and then just like that
you made me feel so unwanted
Like a thorn on a rose tree
Your stare followed her around the room ...
Your body, your laugh
And the way your eyes undressed me.
You reminded me what butterflies felt like
How ordinary moments can feel so magical
And what an extraordinary experience it was
To have someone make me feel
So much better about myself
Or even how someone special
Could bring my smile back.
The connection felt so real
As rare as a blue rose.
and then just like that
you made me feel so unwanted
Like a thorn on a rose tree
Your stare followed her around the room ...

Trash Can Memories
Presented with a choice
I could sit and revisit trashcan
memories, the ones that suspend
me at the waters edge, where
trees grow apples that are rotten
to the core
A place where cracked mason
jars filled with dead Lilly's
are the prettiest things to
look at
I could sit and watch my battered
heart hang by a noose wrapped
with parasitic growth amongst
twisted limbs that lie naked and starving waiting for your return
I could dwell on the vision of
your mouths open to fornication unable to stave...

Tough, Dumb, Moronic LOVE
Love'love, whatever
love
began as seemed to
have lost itself along
the way,
(some way, any way)
on any-given-day they've
been heard to say.
The convenience was rarely
to show face.
It just wouldn't ex'pose face where
it's kept in it's place.
Love, love, lovelove, what is the
matter with you?
How did you stay so far from this
always silent room?
What could have been done to you?
...

Seeing Is Believing
Biting hands that feed you leads to starvation
Calculate the math & add that to the equation
No matter the relation, you must give respect
Same type of respect that you expect to get
Never should you forget who's had your back
It may lead to regrets after support is slacked
At times we must retract for our own well being
For talk is cheap to many & seeing is believing
Calculate the math & add that to the equation
No matter the relation, you must give respect
Same type of respect that you expect to get
Never should you forget who's had your back
It may lead to regrets after support is slacked
At times we must retract for our own well being
For talk is cheap to many & seeing is believing

Bold Villains
The world is vastly changing,
The villains are winning cause,
Villains don't wear masks no more,
they don't hide in the shadows
they come straight to your door
look you right in face
and call you,
Friend.
You won't see it coming
cause you're blinded by pretense.
The fake smile on their faces'
the offered, 'helping hand'
Best not tell your problems
to the one who think they could solve them,
They cry with you then laugh behind you,
Always there but never there when you.....
It's like you're...

Bedragulated Perfidy
"Roll, rattle, and shake!"
god don't give me no break.
"rattle, shake and roll",
might just jump in a devil-hole. ~
A devil-hole, indeed. Ye won't breathe
any'no better down there.
( No more bee'honeyed parsnips
for lunch. )
But pleas don't lose faith that i won't nurture yOur
godly-given gifts.
I've gotten some rotten publicity lately, but it
might not be too-late...
