A Senryú Ode To Somewhere Over The Rainbow
Somewhere bluebirds fly
Troubles melt like lemon drops
Why oh why, can't I
Troubles melt like lemon drops
Why oh why, can't I

IF I COULD WRITE A LOVE SONG
There are a million love songs
That I could sing
I wish I could write one
It seems like the right thing
Our love is so different
In oh so many ways
A song can't do it justice
I'd like to write one anyway.
CHORUS:
If I could write a love song
I tell you what I would say
I'll always love you darling
'Till my dying day
If I could write a love song
It would include your name
You are my love song
The music that I sing.
It wouldn't be just another ...
That I could sing
I wish I could write one
It seems like the right thing
Our love is so different
In oh so many ways
A song can't do it justice
I'd like to write one anyway.
CHORUS:
If I could write a love song
I tell you what I would say
I'll always love you darling
'Till my dying day
If I could write a love song
It would include your name
You are my love song
The music that I sing.
It wouldn't be just another ...

A Little This
With a little this, and a little that
something to amuse myself
perhaps memories of guacamole
or a cat cradle with strings
winding around your fingers
silence whispers, reading Gunga Din
baa baa baby have you kissed my shadow
with a little this, and a little that
a little birdie told me so
something to amuse myself
perhaps memories of guacamole
or a cat cradle with strings
winding around your fingers
silence whispers, reading Gunga Din
baa baa baby have you kissed my shadow
with a little this, and a little that
a little birdie told me so

POETDITTY
(Sung to the tune of Waylon Jennings' "Momma Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up To Be Cowboys"-intended to be funny not inflammatory, after all I'm a member of the tribe)
*"Momma don’t let your babies"
grow up to be poets
don’t let’em write stanzas
or live in a loft
expose ‘em to hard labor
before they go soft
"Momma don’t let your babies"
grow up to be poets
they always complain
and the best are insane
pining for someone they love
* Quoted verbatim from Waylon Jennings' song,...

[2015] It Takes Two To Ghost Dance
I've traveled this trail of tears
so many times before
always ending with a crying shaman
left behind holding the bag
waving a white flag
Here I am, not as lawman, just a layman
giving you a taste of your own medicine
Man, do you hear what I'm sayin'?
when I say that
Apache servers make for poor spirit horses
charging flaming buffalo wing style across
battlefield littered with bull shitters impaled
by their own disdain dipped arrows...

mama never told me no lie
mama you said there is light
mama i can't see

mama you say that there is light
mama i can't see

There’s a new song in my heart
since Beautiful Em
has set it free
There’s a new song in my heart
it’s a wonderful
synchronicity!
Most of my cares
are cast away
via transparencies
on display. . .
O what peace of mind
this is sooo sublime
There’s a new song
in
my heart!
since Beautiful Em
has set it free
There’s a new song in my heart

There’s a new song

Working On A Rose Garden
On an icy winter morning
I get up out of bed
Roll away from the beautiful woman
Who always keeps me fed
I'd rather stay at home though
Can't satisfy my boss
With my girl I know I'm welcome
Good Lord, my woman's soft
I head out to the pickup
That's never let me down
Then race out to the jobsite
Just outside of town
They work me like a rented mule
Be good and dirty 'fore I'm through
Well that's fine And I don't mind
Just a thing a man must do
Well I know my woman loves me
And she knows I love her too ...
I get up out of bed
Roll away from the beautiful woman
Who always keeps me fed
I'd rather stay at home though
Can't satisfy my boss
With my girl I know I'm welcome
Good Lord, my woman's soft
I head out to the pickup
That's never let me down
Then race out to the jobsite
Just outside of town
They work me like a rented mule
Be good and dirty 'fore I'm through
Well that's fine And I don't mind
Just a thing a man must do
Well I know my woman loves me
And she knows I love her too ...

Dear Girl,
Dear Girl,
In this journey..
Jungle all the way..
Bear with me..
So far..
Not now..
We are yet to reach..
Just go learn..
Come so high..
You'll find me..
Don't ask me how..
The days we hold to survive..
Never land till you aboard..
This world's topsy turvy my dear..
When I shout so loud..
Just wonder like Alice..
You know we...
In this journey..
Jungle all the way..
Bear with me..
So far..
Not now..
We are yet to reach..
Just go learn..
Come so high..
You'll find me..
Don't ask me how..
The days we hold to survive..
Never land till you aboard..
This world's topsy turvy my dear..
When I shout so loud..
Just wonder like Alice..
You know we...

Loving Touch
Sometimes, things are going wrong
You've had enough and you feel
Like you're just not tough enough
To make it through
Just think of me and how much
I love you and remember that
I'm here for you
Yes, I'll always be here for you
(Chorus)
Close your eyes and visualize
That I'm there with you
I wanna help see you through
I just wanna keep loving you
Your loving touch means so much
It's true your love is
A bright spot in my day
And darling, I've just got to say
I want to love you in everyway ...
You've had enough and you feel
Like you're just not tough enough
To make it through
Just think of me and how much
I love you and remember that
I'm here for you
Yes, I'll always be here for you
(Chorus)
Close your eyes and visualize
That I'm there with you
I wanna help see you through
I just wanna keep loving you
Your loving touch means so much
It's true your love is
A bright spot in my day
And darling, I've just got to say
I want to love you in everyway ...

Reason to carry on
Another back street drinking wine
sleeping rough and losing time
I knelt down in the gutter
and I offered up a prayer.
I wanted to hear him answer
but he don't come round here.
I listened hard but I'll tell you
I didn't know which way to go
I listened hard but I'll tell you
No one came to save me I know.
So I sat back by the roadside
many times I've took that ride
I tell you friend it was so cold
that I offered up my soul.
This time I asked for nothing
didn't want a single thing.
