Lucidity

       In this world we live in today
Some would say its lost its innocence
But there’s a split  decision and some
Would say we’ve reached a deliverance

Everything is so confusing,Thin
Is the line between right and wrong
The clouds of darkness are thick
And there’s a sadness in nature’s song

It’s harder today than ever before
To walk life’s balance beam
Political Correctness is just a cover
For the left’s corruption scheme

There’s no solution to the problem
We’re past the point of no return
We’ve taken all the lessons from the
Past and we’ve refused to learn

As the world turns each moment
It slips more into instability
The human race stands on the edge of
Sanity desperately trying to keep our Lucidity

Invisible Man

       You live your life, working for the
Man clocking in and clocking out
You ask yourself what’s the purpose
What’s this life all about

Sometimes you just want to get away
Somewhere far across the sea
Just to escape the darkness that surrounds
You but a loaded gun couldn’t set you free

You’ve seen your heroes on
The big silver screen
You wish you could be like them
But you’ll never be that keen

You might feel a need for praise
That you have never gotten
But deep down you’re just hoping
To be someone that’s not forgotten

When your life on Earth is through
And it’s put under a careful scan
Will the results clearly indicate that
You were more than an Invisible Man

Light House

Light house, light house for all sailors to see
A beacon to warn the dangers of the shore
In the thickest of fogs or stormy nights
You will keep them safe for ever more

Built to last on a hill or cliff
You will stand strong and true
Lives are saved every night
When your light comes shining through

Warning, warning you’re getting to close
The rocks beneath me are jagged and large
They are capable enough to sink your ship
Whether it be an ocean liner or barge

I was put here to shine for you
I won’t let you down
As long as you heed the warning
And turn away or turn around

Thank you light house
With your light so bright
Helping all ships at sea
Sail safe in the night

You are a hero to all
Who’s lives that your light saves
You deserve all recognition
Accolades and praise

Black Diamond

      When you look into the mirror
Do you see your own reflection
When you reach into your soul
Can you feel any connection

Are you the person that everyone
Sees, are you as happy as it seems
Have you settled for your life
Or do you still have dreams

Are you in control of your own destiny
Are you the one at the Helm
Or have you surrendered your heart
To a power from another Realm

I’ll never know the depths of your
Feelings or the reason for your dark light
I’ll never know the path you walk
Or the many Demons you fight

You’re such a Toxic soul
Never to have been Enlightened
Your like a Jewel in the rough
You shine like a Black Diamond

A Candle Without A Wick

       You’re a candle without a wick
You listen to the voices in your head
You hear the Demons whisper
You’d be better off dead

You’re your own worst enemy
You’re the reason for your own pain
You walk through life without an umbrella
And subject yourself to the poison rain

You’ve lost the ability to feel love
And pleasure in your everyday
You’d rather hide in the shadows
And just simply fade away

In a world full of people, you can’t
Imagine someone else who feels the same
You think God has forsaken you and
The Devil knows your name

You tell everyone, when it comes to a
Good life you drew the shortest stick
Everyone needs to know that no one knows
Darkness like A Candle Without A Wick

I’m Too Slow For Breakfast

    I love breakfast, a good omelette
Or eggs over easy and some toast
Add sausage and hash browns too but
Sausage biscuits and gravy, I love most

But breakfast comes early and fast
And now I’m lucky if I get brunch
Time has slowed me and more times
Than not I usually just get lunch

It’s a sad, sad thing and  sometimes
I feel like a loser instead of a winner
I hate not getting a morning breakfast
So sometimes I have it for dinner

My dilemma is real for the morning
It just moves so very fast
I can’t get motivated and time
Doesn’t stop and mornings don’t last

To sum it up with my poetic description
Breakfast mornings are a swift tempest
I’m like an aged slimy slow moving snail
And I’m Too Slow For Breakfast

The Warning

     Have you heard The Warning
Well I’m spreading the News
It’s time you’ve heard their music
I tell ya you’ve got Nothin To Lose

From their first, Twenty First Century Blood
To their second Queen Of The ****** Scene
Followed by Error and Keep Me Fed
They’re consistent with their edge so Keen

It’s like a slap in the face followed
By a shocking gentle KISS
More exciting than a Roller Coaster Ride
You’ll lose yourself in the Abyss

The ladies Daniela, Paulina and
Alejandra each have beautiful souls
Feel the warmth of their Automatic Sun
And the heart break of Black Holes

The deteriorating structure of Rock & Roll
Has long been in need of restoring
We are so fortunate now its been
Left in the hands of The Warning

His Perfection

     I really love Scientists and their
Knowledge of many things
As they tell us about the planets
Like Saturn and her rings

I love them telling us about Jupiters
Big Storm and about the red planet Mars
I enjoy the mysteries of Black Holes
And learning the ingredients for Stars

They amaze me with their genius
It’s really second to none
But the Big Bang Theory is still
Missing the Smoking Gun

They have given us information
That’s now universally known
Our existence is only possible
Because of the Goldilocks Zone

What amazes me even more is how they
Still cannot make the Connection
Still denying our Creator when they
Can Plainly See His Perfection

Everlasting Butterflies

    There’s a story of love in my
Poetry I’ll try to summarize
It happens to be all of the Cliches
The weak knees and Butterflies

Love at first sight, I know it’s corny
But I tell you no lies
It’s like a fairy tail complete with
Unicorns, Rainbows and those Butterflies

When it’s true love, it’s hard to explain
Every time I look into her eyes
I get so lost and I’m speechless and
You guessed it those Butterflies

There’s Nothing even the best poets
Could write any words of surprise
Because love is a feeling deep inside
Perfectly described as Butterflies

The fluttering of the wings inside the
Stomach cannot be explained otherwise
You know you’re falling as you get dizzy
And weak in the knees and those Butterflies

It’s a feeling so strong that nothing
Can destroy and it never dies
Married for forty one years, yes still
Those Everlasting Butterflies

The Knife In My Back

    Hey you Marion, a charade you are
I trusted you a friend
You did what you did and you’re
Gone and I’m still here in the end

Everybody saw a country pumpkin
You were wonderful in their eyes
Nobody ever knew the evil beneath
The skin of your elaborate disguise

Then one day it came to be
I was able to get a closer look
I saw the Demon inside as clearly
As the illustrations in a book

You didn’t like yourself for your slip
So you tried quickly to ruin me
I didn’t get a chance to expose
The Truth and let everyone see

You decapitated my reputation with
One drop of the blade of a guillotine
Then you disappeared without a trace
Never again to be seen

So I was just the last victim
From another cowardly attack
I survived the damage done but
I’ll never forget The Knife In My Back

Relentless Rebel

    When there’s a dark past of alcohol
Abuse,chaos, violence and flashing lights
Mental problems and self hate
And dysfunctional family fights

As a teenager you tend to fight back
Out of desperation and need
But you’ll never be able to avenge
All the blood you had to bleed

You become a relentless rebel
You’ve got a troubled soul
You have anger issues and
You turn to drugs and Rock & Roll

You spend a lot of time as a loner
Like a survivalist in the woods
Love comes into your life but
Unfortunately you’re damaged goods

Then one day God sends you an Angel
And there’s a fading of the words of steel
And soon after you notice the same of the
Scars you thought would never heal

Today you have the love of Jesus and
You’ve torn up the contract with the Devil
You leave your past behind but there’s
Still a trace of the Relentless Rebel

The Fall

       Once there was a routine of going
To bed and turning out the light
There was a dream I dreamt
Each and every night

Like a hero I would suddenly appear
And save a beautiful damsel in distress
But ultimately she would save me from
Myself and my heart of a shattered mess

I would fall in love and the healing would
Begin and a smile would return to my face
Pleasure would replace the pain
Leather would transform into lace

And now the dream has become a
Reality because I’ve found you
Now every day I have to pinch myself
Because I can’t believe that it’s true

Everything is more than I could imagine
From first sight and our first kiss
I pray that I’m not in the twilight zone
Suddenly to be removed from my bliss

Leaving me with a heart pierced several
Times by a shoemaker’s Awl
Slowly dying from a loss of life because
I couldn’t survive The Fall

On The Wings Of A Butterfly

     My mother passed away in May
Of nineteen ninety one
I still miss her very much and
It’s still hard to believe she’s gone

But I believe in God and Angels and I
Believe that Angels watch over me
So in my mind she is A New Angel
And life is as it’s supposed to be

She loved Spring, it was her favorite
Time of Year and it made her smile
But seasons come and go and so
Her joy was only for a short while

My birthday is the first day of Spring
In March but it’s April showers
That brings the rain and gives us
The beautiful May flowers

So as the April showers fall down on
Me there’s sad and happy tears I cry
And to comfort me she sends her love
On The Wings Of A Butterfly

🩸On The Wings Of Blood🩸

    Ancient stories throughout time
Tell of Evil, blood and death
The horror and fear that some
Have suffered before their final breath

The legend of a man who sold his soul
To the Devil for love
Then one day he rebelled against the
Devil and push came to shove

The Devil saw himself in the Man
When He had rebelled in the Lord
He knew he could **** the Man
Easily with one slice of his sword

But the Devil decided that the
Man would suffer and never die
For eternity the Devil would take pleasure
Listening to the Man as he would cry

The Man would be cursed to have an
Insatiable thirst never to be quenched
Even if he was beneath and eternal
Shower and was forever drenched

The thirst would be for blood
The sensation forever galvanizing
His powers over his victims
Is paralyzing and hypnotizing

Tonight The night air is crisp,the clouds
Obscure the Moon, the wind is brisk
The fog lingers across the land
Going outside would be of great risk

For the Evil one preys tonight
He strikes like a scud
The air will be filled with echoing screams
As death flies in On The Wings Of Blood

I stole the title from a book
But I don’t know anything else about the book and just assumed by the title that it was
About Vampires. I hope there’s no copy rights
Infringement if so I will take it down.
I assure everyone that the poem is completely original for I didn’t read one word of the book. My sister in law had a copy of the book laying out when I went to visit.

Thunderstorm

  We've been avoiding each other,
trying not to collide
But there's only so many
Places we can hide

Like a typical spring day
The cold clashing with the warm
The clouds are rolling in
I think it's gonna storm

(C) Like a thunderstorm
When we fight
You're like lightning when
You strike
With your burn coming as
Quick as a flash of light
And I'm like thunder when
I come down
I can smash you as I stand
My ground
And our love shakes apart
As we break each other's heart
In the wrath of a thunderstorm

Why does it always have
to Be this way
It's like we're walking on
Broken glass every day

I come home to you
I don't know what to say
I get this feeling that it's
Just a game you play

(C) Like a thunderstorm
When we fight
You're like lightning when
You strike
With your burn coming as
Quick as a flash of light
And I'm like thunder when
I come down
I can smash you as I stand
My ground
And our love shakes apart
As we break each other's heart
In the wrath of a thunderstorm

(Music interlude,solo)

(Bx2) With all of the wind
And rain
We've suffered to much
Damage and pain

(Cx2) (Bx2) End in Music

When I’m In Heaven

        Everyday there’s a mindset
There’s always a tomorrow
But life can be taken in an instant
Leaving behind a trail of pain and sorrow

I’ve lived a life and still
I feel I’ve got a life to live
The Lords gift I did receive
And of myself I give

When I was young I was
Full of energy and fire
But now I’m sixty three
And I just want to retire

I’m done with work and I want to
Enjoy living while I’m still alive
But the laws for social security
Says I must wait until sixty five

There’s talk on table now they’re
Thinking of raising it to sixty seven
The way things are going I’ll be applying
For my SS When I’m In Heaven

Fortissimo

       I’ve written music is my mistress
I’ve told you that I love her so much
When I’m down and feeling low
My lady music has the healing touch

She knows when to just
Hold me and let me cry
Or pick me up and spin me around
But she never passes me by

She knows when to be mellow
And take it easy and slow
She knows how to move me
And go with the flow

Sometimes I just need to
Release the animal from the cage
Jump in the air and scream
Like a Rock Star on the stage

I can honestly say I appreciate her
Romantic caressing Pianissimo
But my favorite lady is the
One that Rocks me Fortissimo

Unseen Reality

     Since the beginning and eternal
In the realms of time and space
The battle for souls rages on as
Physical death constantly takes place

So it was written so it shall be done
Good verses Evil Earth, Heaven & Hell
In the words of the ancient text
It says that Good will prevail

Jesus was Crucified on the Cross
The Blood was Shed
Nothing was Left undone
No words were left unsaid

You can stand your own ground
You can hold steadfast and deny
As the final hour continues to grow near
Where will you be when things go awry

I’ve put my Faith in the written word
I have chosen Jesus and the Lords Decree
It’s time for you to open your eyes and
Let them see the Unseen Reality

Heavy Sigh

      I’m just every day people
I’m just trying to get by
When life knocks me down
It sets me back, I won’t lie

But I get back up, it’s all I can do
Ain’t got no time to dwell or cry
Each day I succeed or I fail
But each day I still try

I’ve learned some lessons and
I put effort into making them apply
I always try to remember
I’m under the watch of God’s eye

He’s taught me that the past is gone
And every hello will have a goodbye
Forgiveness is the key and
I must strive to be a good guy

We must carry on and praise
The Lord in our Heavenly Sky
For it’s inevitable we all experience
Our joys and an occasional Heavy Sigh

I’m No Charlemagne

     My name is Charles
AKA Chuck But I’m not great
At age sixty three sometimes
I walk with an unsteady gait

Sometimes I get down on myself
But I can’t explain why
Sometimes I am proud to be me
Can’t please everyone but I try

When I’m working I work hard
I always try to be the best
But I am only human and in life
Sometimes I fail the test

I always ask myself
What would Jesus do
I don’t always comply
My evaluation is under further review

Sometimes I speak my mind
Your approval I’m not seeking to gain
Though I try, I know I fall short of
God’s glory and I’m No Charlemagne

To Be

       To be or not to be
Every day is a choice you see
To be or not to be
It’s a choice made easily

To be or not to be
One who is kind and friendly
To be or not to be
Or to be mean in great degree

To be or not to be
One who values integrity
To be or not to be
Or one without values despicably

To be or not to be
One who handles things with sensitivity
To be or not to be
Or one who handles things carelessly

To be or not to be
One who is Devilishly or Godly
To be or not to be
And Godly is how I choose To Be

Under A Blood Red Moon

     He was born into Evil
His mother a Witch of darkness
His father one of the Devil’s Sons
This could easily explain his Hardness

He was tall dark and handsome
He was always dressed in black
The people of the town only
Knew him as Master Jack

His reflexes were amazingly quick
He could sense another man’s fear
In fact all of his senses were powerful
Even the softest whispers he could hear

He secluded himself in a shack at the
Edge of the forest near a black lagoon
But if he came into town you could
Always find him at the Saloon

He was a natural gun slinger and it’s
Said there were many men he’s killed
For many men tried to face him but
They were unfortunately unskilled

He fell in love with Lila a beautiful
Woman and vowed to change his ways
For a brief moment in time he lived
In blissful and happy days

One night a stranger from afar came
To shoot the legend and watch him die
But Lila intervened and the bullet pierced
Her heart and Jack began to cry

He swiftly killed the stranger and once
Again secluded himself in his shack
As the story goes it was the last of
Him for he never came back

They say the fog is thicker in that
Forest near the Black Lagoon
And you can hear Master Jack cry out
For Lila at night Under A Blood Red Moon

Separate Ways

     Was it all just wasted time
Everything that we’ve been through
Once together now worlds apart
Our hearts broken In two

Was our love like teenage puberty
Just an awkward passing phase
Leaving behind our love to memories
And going our separate ways

How did we get to where we are
What happened to the passion and desire
Once there was spark for the flame
Now there’s no fuel for the fire

Our lives had a future so bright
Full of promise, forever and always
Now the journey is in shadow & darkness
As we go our separate ways

Don’t you remember how we touched
Those hand holding morning walks
And our sleepless nights killing time
With laughter and bedroom talks

The world that was once filled with
Color is now just shades of gray’s
I’m lost without direction
Now we’ve went our Separate Ways

The Color Of Night

    I woke up this morning to the
Sound of the birds as they sing
And for a brief moment I had that
Fuzzy feeling of spring

When everything is Sunshine &
Roses I’m walking in the rain
My Happiness got left behind like
Lost luggage on a midnight train

My heart has an empty void and
I’m lost in foggy haze I can’t explain
I’m angry and I’m sad and I just
Want to scream but I refrain

My brother Steve has passed away
And I feel I’ve been stripped of joy
He’s probably up in Heaven trying to
Teach the Angels the words to Rapid Roy

I should be celebrating my Birth
And though I know I’ll be alright
At the moment I’m morning his Death
And wearing The Color Of Night

YOUR IDIOCY

      I’m gonna take a moment here
Of my own personal time
To write a quick little PSA
In a special little rhyme

Now I know the title is crude but
Sometimes crude has its place
So this is why I have to send this
Message like I’m in your face

Most of you out there do what’s right
And with driving etiquette you comply
So disregard this for when it
Comes to you this does not apply

When driving we use our lights
At Dusk and at Dawn
And definitely in the dead of night
And when our wipers are on

Your lights are not necessarily
So that you can see to drive
But most importantly they are
So others see you and stay alive

So I hope you learned something
From these words of my poetry
It’s really my biggest pet peeve
The world is tired of YOUR IDIOCY

Devil Manipulation

     Let’s take a moment and have a
Rational and Civilized conversation
This will constitute your full attention
And requires your participation

I’m not someone who requires your
High percentage of Education
And I won’t concentrate on the
Differences of our Generation

I agree that everything in life
Deserves a thorough examination
And for centuries upon centuries
Science still continues to deny Creation

Yes I’m aware that the all religions
Present their own interpretation
As I continue to live my life based
Upon my own experience and observation

I see the Devil and his desire to
Come between us and create separation
And he’s effortlessly able to accomplish
This with very little coordination

If you just take a moment to listen to
My sample of this simple demonstration
You just may very well see the truth
And come to some type of revelation

I don’t want this to be about politics
But the Devil used it for his adaptation
So now here we are in a Trans Gender
Identity Crisis and a loss of Salvation

It’s a battle of darkness and light
The Devil has proven his innovation
And the people of Trans Gender
Simply believe it’s their right of Liberation

Some would argue that I’m among the
Ones pushing for our isolation
But I’m really just wanting clear minds
To put this under further investigation

I don’t believe that Apes are our ancestors
But I do believe in a type of Evolution
Like tapping into our entire brain but
Trans Gender isn’t this transformation

The presence of Good and Evil is obvious
And this is a perfect representation
My Rhyme for this is never ending but I
Will by saying this is Devil Manipulation

Loves Whisper

        Loves Whisper
It’s soft like a baby’s skin
Like the feel of silk
Gentle and warm like a Summer Breeze
Comfortable like fully fluffed feather
Pillow, suddenly you’re in tune with
The vibrations and ways of nature
Like the leaves turning to the rain
The wonderful relationship of the Honey
Bee and the flower it’s like a lovely
Blessing that’s hard to explain
It’s like trying to describe a Butterfly KISS
Or floating on a cloud because there’s nothing we can compare it too
It’s like seeing everything with Kaleidoscope
Eyes and walking beneath glitter dust
Skies and when it’s right time stands
Still and forty years later you find yourself
Still under the spell of Loves Whisper

Screaming Soul

      I heard a story but In today’s
World I don’t know if it’s a truth or a lie
But I guess it doesn’t really matter
The moral of telling it is reason why

When I heard of this story, I thought
To myself it needed to be re told
It’s the tragedy of a boy named
John Bolaware, he was just 16 years old

At his age he thought he was invincible
He was living his life in the fast lane
And this story of his demise is both
Very tragic and quite insane

The year was 1984 and he was
Full of life and revel
The music was loud and the song
Was Van Halen Runnin With The Devil

In a car with his friends traveling at
A very high rate of speed feeling free
They lost control of the vehicle
And went off the road and hit a tree

Hearing this I thought about the Stairway
To Heaven and The Highway To Hell
The promise and truth of Jesus and
The promise and lies the Devil has for sale

When the Police arrived on the scene
The radio was still loud with Rock & Roll
They snapped a picture just in time to
Capture the boys Screaming Soul

The moral of the story is we never know
Our fate or final day so get on the right
Path while you still have a choice.

Multiple Personalities

     We all have two personalities
Even if unconsciously unaware
One Knows the good and is usually
Dominant and one we forbear

We present our softer side
On more of a routine basis
Occasionally our inner Demon
Surfaces proving we have two faces

This can be troublesome as we
Struggle with our two sides of contrary
And the reality of this can be
At times really scary

I often tell people Angel or Demon
Depends on how you approach me
So choose wisely it may trigger the
One you don’t want to see

In rare and extreme cases there
May be mass casualties
When someone releases the Demon
Of my Multiple Personalities

Molly’s Song

     She’s a troubled soul and she thinks
She’s the only one with a woeful plight
The path she walks is illuminated
With a persistent dark light

She dreams of a better tomorrow
But she lives in yesterday
And she’s always oblivious to
The blessings of today

She’s tortured by her anxiety
And the voices of her mind
And she’s constantly searching
For something she can never find

Impossible is her ability to be happy
And it’s beyond being an absurdness
She can only find her comfort
When she’s surrounded in darkness

She’s created her own prison
Her sentence is lifelong
And Heartbreaking are the lyrics
And melody of Moly’s Song

Our Brother Steve Is Dead

     There was a time when we were
Close, but with time we drifted apart
You might say it makes it easier
But still it’s heavy on my heart

Memories of the days of our youth
Flash before me like it was yesterday
And the times as young adults how
We’d talk the night away

His heart was gold but he angered quick
He held on to grudges and couldn’t forgive
He was stubborn with his point of view
It was the way he chose to live

There was a time when we were there
Through thick & thin for each other
Sometimes we didn’t always agree
But he was still my brother

Lord I pray he’s with you in Heaven
And comfort our family in the days ahead
As we come face to face with the reality
That Our Brother Steve Is Dead

That you and I are connected somehow
In a fantastic and wonderful odyssey

Through a misty haze, I see us together
In an enchanted place
The music of nature has us locked
In a dance and we’re face to face

In the realms of time and space
Some things are just meant to be
No matter how many times we drift
Apart there will always be you & me

We will live a million reincarnations
On the vibrations of the wind chimes
Our love will truly last forever
Time Again, Again In Time

The Truth

       Let’s Talk About the Truth
Our lives and our freedom of choice
We can live anyway we wish or we can
Listen to God, his still small voice

We’re all given a life to live
No matter what it becomes
That’s truth that we know
Never knowing when death comes

In the meantime we fight our Demons
Never surrender your heart and mind
The world may be cruel but truth is
We can Always find a way to be kind

You can always find the truth
Even in this universe of lies
And there’s truth with every hello
There will always be goodbyes

So let’s plant the seed of love
And let’s watch it grow
It may do more for the world
Than we may ever know

Treasure every moment and make
Sure you hold steadfast in your youth
Keep your faith and praise and pray
For one day we’ll all know The Truth

My Brother Steve Passed Away
02/17/2025 RIP MY BROTHER!!!!

LOSS

      MY BROTHER STEVE PASSED AWAY
TONIGHT 💔😢

Between The Sun & The Rain

       They say that time heals all wounds
In the meantime I’ll present my charade
Until something happens to remind me
And I realize time only made them fade

I don’t know why we tell
Ourselves this just to get by
Is it so wrong that we must hide
Our Scars and never cry

In a world surrounded by people
I still feel very much alone
On the outside you can never know
I’m comfortably numb clean to the bone

When you said goodbye I pretended
Some day you’d still return
All the things you attempted to teach
Me I still refused to learn

Now I understand that time will
Never take away my pain
And forever I’ll be stuck somewhere
Between The Sun & The Rain

My Sweet Madam Blue

       I’m deep in a feeling, you know
It seems it will last and last
I look to my future and I can see
It’s the same as the past

Happiness is always just out of
My reach, I’m lost in a trance
I’d give anything to find my way out
To be given half the chance

Forever I know I’ll feel the heat from
This Fire of your loving Hell
There’s no remedy to release me
From the power of your spell

For eternity I’ll live my life dreading
The harsh and yearning for the tender
I’ll always put up a valiant fight but
I’ll wave the white flag of surrender

Every time I find a way to escape
I’ll find my way back to you
My heart forever breaking as I lay
In the arms of My Sweet Madam Blue

I dedicate this to any and all who have
Suffered with or who may be currently suffering with depression.
When you suffer with it for so long
It feels like it’s the only feeling that’s right
Nothing else feels right so you always find yourself back in the arms of sweet Madam Blue. I’ve been there and my heart breaks for you!!! God Bless!!!

🦅FLY EAGLES FLY🦅

        I was 15 or 16 when I decided to
Be a Philadelphia Eagles fan
Today I’m writing this to you from
The heart of a 62 year old man

I can’t be any prouder of Hurts, Dejean,
Goedert, Shipley, Slay, Baun and Brown
Barkley,Elliot,Carter, Smith, Campbell
And the rest of the boys of Philly Town

They beat the mighty Chiefs In Superbowl
Fifty nine Chiefs twenty two Eagles Forty
A franchise since Nineteen thirty three
Now have a second trophy in their story

The Chiefs are a great team and
They’ve had a great run
But I couldn’t be happier that my Eagles
Stuck a fork in them and said you’re done

So to all the Eagles fans out there
To the Chiefs wave goodbye
Lift your voices to the sky
And sing 🦅FLY EAGLES FLY 🦅

The Clique

    Follow, follow, follow, we’re such
An individually weak society
You’re either in or you’re out  
Leaving us with no self piety

So consumed with what others think
There’s a desire to be liked or loved
To feel a sense of belonging instead of
Being judged and pushed and shoved

Like sharks to blood they’re quick and
Swift as they move in for the ****
Everyone else is watching you and
Gauging the strength of your will

High School never ends it’s just not
Always so plain to see
Backstabbing takes you by surprise
But you were aware of their ability

You never were one to walk in line
Like ashes of a cigarette they flick
You’re so easily dismissed
If you’re not in The Clique

The Irrational Mind

    I’m writing this here today
To bring awareness of the unstable
As we move further into the future
More and more will be set upon our table

Trans Gender is just another example
Of the overwhelming new trend
Whether it’s drugs or alcohol or dementia
Or just a mental illness unable to mend

The number of people suffering is rising
At an alarming out of control rate
It’s something that isn’t talked about
Though we’re beyond the crisis state

I’m talking to you as a man who’s had
More than my fair share of experience
And in each there’s a difference in the
Aspects and the individual variance

If you find yourself face to face
Ones mannerisms are well defined
And you must maintain a mind rational
When dealing with The Irrational Mind

Bless The ****

      It’s a cruel, cruel world
It’s no secret, it’s nothing new
So don’t take it personally, it’s just
A fact that’s undeniably true

The Government and the media
Is nothing but ******* and lies
Time is something so precious
And it’s true that Time flies

So if you find one day you must deal
With a Dip **** take it in stride
It’s really just a small World
Sooner or later you will collide

There’s always his **** or her ****
And someone who is the **** too
Just laugh it off and live your life
Tomorrow will be brand new

The **** will always hit the fan so
This is my message I wish to Transmit
Thank God for everything in life
And just Bless The ****

Sovereign

     Well I am pretty sure this World
Isn’t supposed to be this way
It breaks my heart to think of its once
Complete beauty and watch it decay

When I say complete beauty I’m referring
To how we’ve stripped the land
And how it seems we’d rather fight with
Each other rather then lend a hand

How we have so many Religions and
Biblical Interpretations that separate
God is Love and he wants us to Love
And with all of this it generates hate

The Religions are nothing but Crap
They manipulate what’s really True
They tell you their interpretation and
Take your money as you sit in their Pew

I survive this world every day,behind
Me walks a full Angel squadron
And I set the Religion of it all aside
And let Jesus be my only Sovereign

The Battles You Fight

       Well there’s Demons In the day
And there’s Demons In the Night
There’s Demons to the left
And Demons to the right

They hide in the shadows
On the edge of your tranquility
Surviving on your inevitable fear
Counting on your vulnerability

Like sharks smelling blood
They’re aware of your wraith
And they will relentlessly attack
The weakness in your faith

There in lies the key so stay steadfast
And strong in what you believe
Don’t forget to praise and pray
And keep that Ace in your sleeve

Jesus is the ultimate Warrior
So let him be your Armored Knight
Eminent will be your victories when
Jesus is with you in The Battles You Fight

Gender Road

        Well I was born in the sixties
The decade of Peace and Love
I grew up in the seventies
There was KISS and God above

I’ve heard about The Stairway To Heaven
And about The Highway To Hell
I knew about the two Paths and that
Trouble could land me in Jail

No one ever taught me anything different
There’s Girls and Boys
I was told about the Devil
Of his deception and ploys

I stopped pretending at age nine or ten
It was Black and White with no Grey
I’m not trying to be funny but I didn’t
Even know about the Gay

I’ve always been kind and respectful so
Forgive me I can’t handle the new Inode
As I try to walk to the Stairway to Heaven
Don’t force me to Go down Gender Road

I Can’t Explain

     There’s something about her way
Yes there’s something about her way
That I can’t explain

There’s something about the way
Yes there’s something about the way
She’s got an easy smile

There’s something about the way
Yes there’s something about the way
She’s got that look in her eyes

And there’s something about the way
Yes there’s something about the way
I find her to be so ****

There’s something about the way
Yes there’s something about the way
She makes me feel when she laughs

And there’s something about the way
Oh there’s something about the way
She curls her toes

There’s something about the way
Yes there’s something about the way
She’s got a certain style

There’s something about the way
Oh there’s something about her way
That I Can’t Explain

My Mixed Emotion

        She left me standing all alone
Deleted my number from her phone
My friends said let’s have some fun
But that’s easier said then done

I feel our love was just wasted years
Now I’m fighting back my inevitable tears
They say a man ain’t supposed to cry
But when a heart breaks I question why

Words of love turned to wicked scorns
The Roses have withered leaving the thorns
I’m walking with a soul so tattered
On the ground my heart is shattered

The river still flows to the sea
The Eagle still soars the sky so free
The children still play in the park
The Sun still shines but everything is dark

There’s no woman now that I can trust
My tears turn everything to rust
Forever like a sailor lost out on the Ocean
I will be lost in My Mixed Emotion

Where Her Spirit Fled

      Once a body with a breath of life
The Doctors reported she was dead
Instantly the tears began to fall
Though knowing where her spirit fled

From a life of abuse, she now
Sleeps in peace in her best bed
During her days she watches over us
From the place where her spirit fled

She always believed in Angels
And in the Bible stories she read
Now she’s one of them
In the place where her spirit fled

She always loved spring and
Winter she would always dread
I know she’s loved and it’s always
Spring in the place where her spirit fled

A Butterfly Angel forever fluttering near a
Rainbow of purple, green, yellow, and red
In a meadow of vibrant flowers sending
Her love from Where Her Spirit Fled

Your Sad Eyes

     Looking back on my memories
I know I’m lucky to be alive
Struggling with emotions, thoughts of
Suicide and the instinct to survive

Witnessing the violence and abuse
I saw your dreams turn to nightmares
And all of your glimpses of hope
Turn to blank and empty stares

I saw all of your once joy
Turn into a life of pain
And all of your sunshine turn
Into darkness and rain

I saw your beautiful smile
Change to a half hearted grin
I watched your willingness to fight
Surrender to a battle you couldn’t win

With all of your might you prayed
For a Hero with a cape
But he never came to rescue you from
Your fate and you never could escape

And all of the emotions you ever had
Were completely drained
Except for the strongest one
And it was fear that remained

All of your love was hanging onto
Broken promises and lies
And your vision of a bright future
Became blurred in Your Sad Eyes

The One

     Attention all people gather around
Let me extend an official lathe
To tell you amazing stories about
People whom had unwavering faith

Like the story of Noah, a righteous man
Instructed to prepare for the rain
He was told to build an Ark
And the people thought he was insane

They mocked him as he built
His vessel designed to scon
Then came the rain and they
Soon realized that he was the one

Now there’s the story of Moses
He said to the Pharaoh let thy people go
He was also laughed at and mocked
As the Pharaoh stood fast with a no

Then the plagues came to destroy
The Pharaoh and the Evil that did spawn
And the day of freedom came
And they knew Moses was the one

But here’s the most amazing, for every
Person that feels like Delta Dawn
And you’ve surely lost your way
Remember he left the 99 For The One

The Thief Of Time

    Born into the World and you’re a
Teenager in the blink of an eye
As a teenager you wish to be an adult
You kiss your teenage years goodbye

Then before you know it you realize
You’ve got teenagers of your own
You can’t believe that this is your life
And how quickly they have grown

Then one day you’re in the Hospital
As life is about to really get wild
There’s gonna be an addition to the
Family in the way of a grandchild

Suddenly you’re reminiscing and
Memories flow like the waves of a song
And you realize you’re one of the
Lucky ones to live this long

Still you find yourself looking at your
Life like it’s the scene of a crime
And you’ve called the police to put
Out an APB for The Thief Of Time
