Making Angels

Making Angels

 

From the heavens the pilots are full of fire

Rich men have no care for a poor man’s desire

Do as I say or you will meet a similar fate

And thus love loses to the forces of hate

 

They’re making angels crying we will win

They’re making angels the good of the sin

They’re making angels see the end begin

They’re making angels oh not again

 

We’re marching in the street we have no voice

We’re marching in the street we have no choice

One day I pray the woe of war will come to an end

He is not my enemy he is merely a distant friend

 

They’re making angels crying we will win

They’re making angels the good of the sin

They’re making angels see the end begin

They’re making angels oh not again

 

It’s half a world away so what do you care

God if but for once you heard our prayer

Evil men with evil goals they are in control

Evil men with evil goals they have no soul

 

They’re making angels crying we will win

They’re making angels the good of the sin

They’re making angels see the end begin

They’re making angels oh not again

 

I wish I was singing about flower blooming in June

I wish I was singing some whimsical merry tune

But this is a dirge of the empty apocalypse

Come closer sweet Lord Judas desires a kiss

 

Another unmarked grave to mock cruelty

Another war to bring us more futility

Meanwhile the angels circle in the wind

Press the button and everything will end

 

They’re making angels crying we will win

They’re making angels the good of the sin

They’re making angels see the end begin

They’re making angels oh not again

She Writes A Poem

She Writes A Poem

 

Heart in hand emotions think

Appropriately pen of red ink

Her thoughts

Fragments

Segments

Caught

Like morning dew upon a spider’s web

Fragilely swaying

In the gentle breeze

Spider nervously twitching all eight legs

A reader a rat in the maze

The provolone of imagery

The cheddar of symbolism

The Muenster of mystery

As the reader meanders

Through tricky turns

Dead end after dead end

Never to comprehend

The cryptic meaning

In between

The scribbled lines

But alas all is fine

Such is the curse

Of free verse

Tell me words of wisdom

Show me a magical kingdom

I want to connect

To unite

To know in confidence

I am not alone in the night

A watchman

Waiting for dawn

The faintest ray

Of the new day

But alas

Black clouds of obscurity pass

She writes a poem

In body and mind

And I am being kind

You Went Rambling

You Went Rambling

 

I’m watching snow falling out of the window

I can hear the freezing wind blow

Ain’t no sunshine in my cloudy sky

You left me now I wonder why

 

We had treasures in our golden chest

Full of good times the very best

But winds of change gave no rest

You went rambling to points out west

 

I remember making love so sweet

Your hand in mine we were complete

I was a dream come true dear baby

Did you leave chasing some fantasy

 

We had treasures in our golden chest

Full of good times the very best

But winds of change gave no rest

You went rambling to points out west

 

It’s cold with no one to keep me warm

There’s no shelter from the storm

I stare at a picture of me and you

I can’t accept it we’re through

 

Tomorrow may it never come

Tears fall in an endless sum

I would search out where you hide

But sweet lover I got my pride

 

We had treasures in our golden chest

Full of good times the very best

But winds of change gave no rest

You went rambling to points out west

A Mother’s Love

 A Mother’s Love

 

I was a child of promise but ain’t we all

Had a mind of mine own even when small

Seventeen stretching my wings for the sky

When you’re young you’re never gonna die

 

A mother’s love is forever

I’ll wait till the fifth of never

You don’t need to be clever

A mother’s love is forever

 

Started running with the crowd we were cool

Momma tried of course she was just a fool

Smoking cigarettes whistling at the boys

Every Saturday night gonna make some noise

 

A mother’s love is forever

I’ll wait till the fifth of never

You don’t need to be clever

A mother’s love is forever

 

Somewhere lost between heaven and hell

Took a wrong turn and nothing was well

All my friends played the disappearing act

I had my pride but I wanted to come back

 

A mother’s love is forever

I’ll wait till the fifth of never

You don’t need to be clever

A mother’s love is forever

 

The prodigal daughter fresh meat headed for the slaughter

Despised I was baptized in the devil’s dirty water

Butt of the joke busted and broke walking far behind

Somewhere in my mind I said momma’s always been kind

 

I said Momma dear I’m sorry for sure

Momma said what you standing there for

Come inside let me make you some hot tea

You’ll always be a precious little girl to me

 

A mother’s love is forever

I’ll wait till the fifth of never

You don’t need to be clever

A mother’s love is forever

They Must Be Friends Of Yours

They Must Be Friends Of Yours

 

Slept late Friday morning sky was lazy gray

Tried to write a song but had nothing to say

My mistress Muse refused to give me rest

I just wanted to say I love you the best

 

They must be friends of yours my lonely one

They must be friends of yours cause I got none

For once in my life I want to have some fun

They must be friends of yours my lonely one

 

Echoes of dreams scrolling the computer screen

The moment steams on the edge of obscene

Right and wrong are more than words in a song

Though you may be powerful you’re not strong

 

They must be friends of yours my lonely one

They must be friends of yours cause I got none

For once in my life I want to have some fun

They must be friends of yours my lonely one

 

Wicked gnomes were laughing late into the night

Bullies bully until you get into a fistfight

God I got a list of things that just ain’t right

Life is beautiful when you walk in the light

 

They must be friends of yours my lonely one

They must be friends of yours cause I got none

For once in my life I want to have some fun

They must be friends of yours my lonely one

 

And here we are pounding the concrete of a lonely street

Searching up and down for something to make us complete

I must report life is short there’s hell below heaven above

The meaning of life is simple it’s all in the word love

 

The scientists insist on evolution

The realists persist in revolution

Bottom line there’s one solution

We gotta recreate the institution

 

They must be friends of yours my lonely one

They must be friends of yours cause I got none

For once in my life I want to have some fun

They must be friends of yours my lonely one

Love Songs Keep Us Strong

 Love Songs Keep Us Strong

 

There ain’t no more angels in the sky                        

You can be a hero if you give it a try

When speaking truth is revolutionary

I kiss her goodbye and say don’t worry

 

Love songs keep us strong

When the world is wrong

We need a hope to belong

Love songs keep us strong

 

In this world of reason shadows grow

Chasing the dollar can you take it slow

Remember making love on the mountain

Drink me baby I’m an endless fountain

 

Love songs keep us strong

When the world is wrong

We need a hope to belong

Love songs keep us strong

 

Betty blue we made the perfect two

Strangers at first but in time we grew

Now the good Lord called you home

In the morning I wake up all alone

 

Love songs keep us strong

When the world is wrong

We need a hope to belong

Love songs keep us strong

 

Maybe I’m glad that you’re in a place of peace

Maybe I’m a pilgrim searching for release

Baby for every act of sin we pay the price

If I had another life I’d live with you twice

 

The crowd is cheering as we leave

Love will win you just need to believe

The greatest story is still being told

Take my hand together we’ll grow old

 

Love songs keep us strong

When the world is wrong

We need a hope to belong

Love songs keep us strong

Fascism On The Rise

Fascism On The Rise

 

In the temple of mammon even your soul has a price

Jezebel was raising hell she gave Ahab some advice

You don’t get to be king by being somebody nice

Now go to the pizza dealer and order a Sicilian slice

 

See the red white and blue in the skies

Taking temperature fascism is on the rise

Fueled by the hate of the god of lies

I wonder why he tries with fascism on the rise

 

I wanted to sit down and write me a lovely love song

Looking out the window I could see life going wrong

So I kissed my girl goodbye and said I just gotta try

And love and only love was the simple reason why

 

See the red white and blue in the skies

Taking temperature fascism is on the rise

Fueled by the hate of the god of lies

I wonder why he tries with fascism on the rise

 

Today there’s endless wars and hopes of reaching Mars

The Federal Reserve got some nerve defunding guitars

I hang out with the hookers at the all-night topless bar

Every woman who takes the stage dreams of being a star

 

See the red white and blue in the skies

Taking temperature fascism is on the rise

Fueled by the hate of the god of lies

I wonder why he tries with fascism on the rise

 

Mother Goose is on the loose tutoring math amongst the poor

The rich man has endless dreams and screams I want more

Jessie Jackson bit the dust I trust the Lord took him home

Sean was counting endless pennies for the greedy green gnome

 

Abigail tells me she doesn’t like Nina Simone

Every man and woman one day must stand alone

Rap is crap but I admit that Gil Scott Heron was cool

In the caves of Washington the evil orange ogre rules

 

See the red white and blue in the skies

Taking temperature fascism is on the rise

Fueled by the hate of the god of lies

I wonder why he tries with fascism on the rise
