Summer

 Summer

 

Spring will bring everything

Insects hum while birds sing

Flowers blossom in power

Forever is but a brief hour

Thunderstorms crash with lightning flash

Green is seen everywhere and in between

Love is on the scene

The glory of the story lies before me

Days stretch long

Making love is never wrong

In the depths of the forest I belong

Vibrant and strong

Kiss me with gentle lips

Hold me as time slips

Sunshine divine

Happy you are mine

Rock stars playing in cheap bars

Half price on secondhand guitars

Riddles pushed away

We’ll pay the piper another day

So wise in our foolishness

Mainlining pleasure seeking more of this

Writing poems that rhyme

In the eternity of time

The second hand of the clock ticking

You and me sticking

Closer than twins

With sweet sickly somber grins

Understand high hand wins

A double measure of pleasure to recall

And suddenly fall

While all of you and me

Are but a fond memory

And so in the subconscious you slumber

In infinite summer

Oliver’s Madness

 Oliver’s Madness

 

The ghost of Pele rages in my soccer sneakers

The twin spirit of Jimi Hendrix plays on my speakers

I got eight tracks of Jim Morrison covering Lead Belly blues

I’m wearing slippers matching Dorothy’s ruby red shoes

 

Oliver is running on a twisty road

Endless bombing hear misery explode

Oliver Oliver this doesn’t make any sense

I’d trade the universe for some shiny six pence

 

I got a degree from dorm sixty-two Graystone U

Rain on the brain will make you insane from my point of view

In the dungeons of Grayhawk I met a greedy grubby troll

If I had a fist full of gold dollars I’d buy your soul

 

Oliver is running on a twisty road

Endless bombing hear misery explode

Oliver Oliver this doesn’t make any sense

I’d trade the universe for some shiny six pence

 

The books of psychiatric diagnoses are long

If you read the endless pages you’ll see the shrinks think wrong

The Thorazine shuffle at the zombie dance we’ll all rebel

You’ll get a piece of heaven when you give them burning hell

 

Oliver is running on a twisty road

Endless bombing hear misery explode

Oliver Oliver this doesn’t make any sense

I’d trade the universe for some shiny six pence

 

Oliver tell me what went wrong?

Oliver this is your special song

Oliver twist it’s a new dance

Oliver Twist here’s your last chance

 

Rich and poor endless war Babylon is soon to fall

Far from Gog and Magog I hear the screamin’ demons call

When you hear these words remember everything that could went wrong

But it ain’t about John he’s gone this is Oliver’s song

 

Oliver is running on a twisty road

Endless bombing hear misery explode

Oliver Oliver this doesn’t make any sense

I’d trade the universe for some shiny six pence

A pretty pearl see her shine working class

Guard Dragons In My Garden

 Guard Dragons In My Garden

 

Guard Dragons in my garden

I beg your pardon?

What are you growing that you need,

Guard Dragons in your garden

A whole host of weed?

Or perhaps something stranger indeed?

Maybe because

Despite the appropriate laws

In that fenced in acre and a half

Behind your home

You have the rarest gnome

The one that can always make you laugh

You know the tiny imp colored green

The one wearing shades at every scene

Whether twilight or midnight

And pray tell what do your dragons eat?

Delicious licorice?

Or perhaps something more sinisterly sweet?

Lake a damsel in distress

Wearing a pink cotton candy dress

Oh I can guess

Why there are Guard Dragons in your garden

In the morning I hear them roar

In the evening I hear them snore

To them life must be one great bore

For all the champions of the sword

Have joined together in one accord

To flagrantly ignore

Your Guard Dragons in the garden

These knights their hearts did harden

And they have forsaken all nobility

And chivalry

And function simply as roughnecks

Having lost all the ladies respect

Except those seeking a cheap thrill

But alas such a lass

Always will

Sell out cheap and lose no sleep

But my mind ponders and wonders

What happened to the heroes of the downtrodden?

 Despite being highly paid

They are all afraid

Of Guard Dragons in the garden

Where Is The Parking?

Where Is The Parking?

 

I couldn’t catch the subway train

Eyes electric lady land vain

I didn’t even have any friends

Besides my Porsche and Mercedes Benz

So I hustled off to Alamo

And snorted a gram of blow

But the CIA was in a little worry

As they fled the scene in diabolical hurry

I saw a spot but it was awful tight

To fit in, to fit in, well I just might

Of course, I didn’t want to scratch the paint

If I did, I’d yell a spell and then faint

There was dog dodo on the ground

My heart in angst began to pound

I pressed the metal to the pedal in backwards cliché

And fled to what was a better day

Yuppies are a thing of the past

And police cruisers ride mighty fast

Chief Columbo is a confidant

Pray tell what more could you want

Another parking deck?

A dismal gigantic metallic wreck

Where is the parking snorted the whore?

What does it matter if there’s nuclear war?

Pieces Of Me

Pieces Of Me 2

 

Hand in hand on a midnight stroll                              

You kissed my lips touched my soul                         

Under the witness of infinity                                     

You whispered softly                                                 

Take these pieces of me                                                         

 

Pieces of me a ring around the heart

No beginning no start

Pieces of me a ring around the heart

Pieces of me never to depart

 

I sailed the seas searching for what?

In each view never forgot

Even on the eternal sea

The wind spoke quietly

Take these pieces of me

 

Pieces of me a ring around the heart

No beginning no start

Pieces of me a ring around the heart

Pieces of me never to depart

 

Forever is something that is made

Red roses grow only to fade

Thorns remain I pray they depart

Can we my love make a new start?

 

Close enough to be vulnerable

Full of fear trembling wonderful

Tomorrow holds only promise

Sorrow to turn to bliss

Love’s fetters so shall it be

Take these pieces of me

 

Pieces of me a ring around the heart

No beginning no start

Pieces of me a ring around the heart

Pieces of me never to depart

There Are Many Herods

There Are Many Herods

 

There are many Herods

Yes indeed

There are many Herods

Poisoned with greed

They are an envious lot

Best to be forgot

Longing for the sky

Coveting God’s throne on high

From the stars

Dealing scars

See the children die

The moan of the drone

Flesh burned off the bone

A smell of hell

Nothing is well

These many Herods

They are not near

To hear the desperate cry

These many Herods

Living a lie

They have no fear

As they are a world away

They dance and play

And curse with scorn

As the world does mourn

But yet in each generation

A baby is born

A champion of salvation

Inwardly torn

Dancing the reds

Singing the blues

Saying what needs to be said

Preaching good news

There are many Herods

History tells of them all

There are many Herods

But they all shall fall

Beaten down by the rod

Of the  Son of God
