trod upon grows robust

its not enough to hate
they must also dominate
'fear us' they cry
behind their guns they hide

soon life will roll on
up becomes down
trod upon grows robust
battered knocks off the rust

flames rise again
there is another friend
a new beginning
to another ending

we need to eat more than just gold

when the factories fail
and the ships dont sail
when the lines stop
and nothing is bought

when the offices grow dark
then will we mark
we need to eat more than just gold
if we ever truly intend to grow old

poets since time began
will remind you again and again
greed is not the way of life
it is the way of only strife

family is best

 why should you care
on what i share?
do you want me to fail?
to see my dreams derail?

whispers and ghosts
never friends to host
family is best
when all others are put to rest

the clock ticks ever on
so soon does our soul
ascend to effloresce
then fall to evanesce

of villains of the blackest sort

charm is a verb
is what I heard
around the campfire toasting
murderers and marshmallows roasting

the queens of the podcast
fill us all in to the last
of villains of the blackest sort
taking innocence from our world

may our children always be safe
in our streets and in their space
may virtue find a way
to grace us all this day

the endless days come

im shouting in vain
is there no end to pain
we must daily attest
and be part of the process

the grind the grind the grind
one loses their own mind
the endless days come
forever around the sun

sitting on the edge of time
hoping to find a rhyme
that will live forever
and be a glorious treasure

lost is the art of gentle speech

can we be friends?
does it always depend
on things you know
you cannot control?

what happened to simple conversations?
a way to pass time between stations?
lost is the art of gentle speech
now we just screech

it will take time
to find a new rhyme
free from worldly vice
and the only law is to be nice
