Sunrise Over Saskatchewan

Sunrise Over Saskatchewan

 

Sunrise over Saskatchewan

Where have all the good times gone?

In the past forever to last in memory

While tomorrow offers the tempting promises of eternity

With Malcolm X I demand respect

Who are you to cajole and vex?

I am free

Standing under understanding the glory of the pine tree

Water is life

To my rhythmic lovers of fantasy I am more than wife

Cut deeply oh sacred knife – cleansed by the fire’s flame

I TOO HAVE DESIRE!!!

I bear no shame

Stab into marrow and bone

I stand alone

With friends and family

I am free

 

I see the tea?

A gentle watering can appropriately green

A funky white container with flowers pretty

Ever been to New York City?

Babylon is not as pretty as a

Sunrise over Saskatchewan

Our collective innocence is gone

And this is a birthday pome?

I missed the garden have pardon

 

Let me bake you a cake

Let me be real and not fake

Let me say have a special day

For this is the anniversary of your birth

Janice Lee Dongworth

Here’s a clue

Like Jesus, I love you

But as we go on in time and fades this rhyme

Will that be true?

Cash the photoflash the moment is gone

Sunrise over Saskatchewan

Folk Singer

Folk Singer

 

You were sweetness with a guitar

A rising rage a shooting star

The rose is pretty with her thorn

We cannot chose the way we are born

 

Folk singer with a folk song

Doing right is never wrong

Keep on going be strong

Folk singer with a folk song

 

A war was raging the country afire

Peace and love such a worthy desire

In fighting history history was made

A pretty nickel you got paid

 

Folk singer with a folk song

Doing right is never wrong

Keep on going be strong

Folk singer with a folk song

 

Well the years they roll on by

We all laugh and we all cry

And there is an answer to ‘why?’

But they only tell you the grand lie

 

Folk singer with a folk song

Doing right is never wrong

Keep on going be strong

Folk singer with a folk song

 

The scenes change but the story stays

It is always the poor man who pays

Alas we all pass naked as we came

All this hate and killing is a shame

 

Folk singer with a folk song

Doing right is never wrong

Keep on going be strong

Folk singer with a folk song

Two Plus Two Equals Five

Two Plus Two Equals Five

 

Cosmic pilgrims slipping moondust into the sacred wine                 

Shakespeare on acid tripping lusting for the right line          

Jesus on the mountain top he’s feeding five thousand souls             

Jim Morrison drunk refusing to pay the parkway tolls                      

 

Two plus two equals five

We’re passing through the great divide

Mankind is gonna survive

Two plus two equals five

 

Apollo was an outright lie but Aphrodite divine

Bankers bowing to golden Baal crying mine mine mine

I heard a rumor that Bob Dylan was selling out

I believe in true love but I confess sometimes I doubt

 

Two plus two equals five

We’re passing through the great divide

Mankind is gonna survive

Two plus two equals five

 

Where are we going where have we been?

Babylon the whore waging war in sin

Planet Earth spinning spinning spinning

Satan looking on grinning grinning grinning

 

When you get out on the yard you gotta rock and roll

Are you aware that somewhere there is a man in control?

The great Pele could score a goal from almost midfield

One day the mathematics professors are going to yield

 

Two plus two equals five

We’re passing through the great divide

Mankind is gonna survive

Two plus two equals five

 

Last time I tried to check the clocks were still keeping time

All of the popular melodies have rhythm and rhyme

In February’s chill I’m still looking forward to spring

Poetry is fine but I want something that I can sing

 

Two plus two equals five

We’re passing through the great divide

Mankind is gonna survive

Two plus two equals five

Endless Ambition

 Endless Ambition

 FAWM  # 29 

Just in and she got up and walked out the door

Read the bulletin she ain’t working here no more

Got a job with the city looking pretty

Good pay he says but Lord ain’t it a pity

 

Endless ambition find it all around

Endless ambition dig that funky sound

We buried Joyce today God forgive her sin

She was a good woman endless ambition

 

We’re multiplying life’s an exponential function

Texas engineers building jet bombers for destruction

Here I am stuck on level three fighting a troll

Look Jack he got a big sack hope it’s full of gold

 

Endless ambition find it all around

Endless ambition dig that funky sound

We buried Joyce today God forgive her sin

She was a good woman endless ambition

 

I would have sold out but they said you’re asking for too much

The price on the bill if you will was a good woman with tender touch

Joyce is taking a tour of those mansions of glory

Heaven and hell but do you know the real story?

 

Little angels slowly losing their innocence

Sophie’s crying because life makes no sense

I want to touch their souls show them love

Cryptic Egyptian fractions I’m thinking of

 

Endless ambition find it all around

Endless ambition dig that funky sound

We buried Joyce today God forgive her sin

She was a good woman endless ambition

 

At the repass the woman elder had zero class

Reciting banal poetry oh Lord let me pass

Meanwhile with a smile zero the hero scores

It’s a simple equation of money attracts whores.

 

Endless ambition find it all around

Endless ambition dig that funky sound

We buried Joyce today God forgive her sin

She was a good woman endless ambition
