KID SONGS
C.O. 3/6/12
All I know about the KID SONGS
Is that there has to be a Right - for every Wrong
And in the End - We'll all get Along
When we listen to the KID SONGS
All I know about the KID SONGS
Is that they should be Simple - They should be Strong
Realize the Connection between us All
When We listen to the KID SONGS – out in the hall
What can you tell me 'bout your KID SONG PAIN?
Were they all about dragging your feet in the rain?
Or were they all about - NOT using your brain
Or how the Rage takes Days to feel the strain~
What can I tell you 'bout the KID SONGS
Repeating lines – Stuck in my head all day long
Yes it makes me - wanna go and bang a gong
When I think about the KID SONGS – all night long
What can you tell me 'bout your KID SONG PRIDE?
I always love it when you - Sing right by my side
It makes me stronger when You Drum us out of a Slide
When we take our new KID SONGS – out for a Ride

Short Stays
C.O. 1/5/2010
When the shelling starts – you can’t hear the words
for the void – that’s where the signals get destroyed
Continue with the acting – un-kempt - just spent
And with too much travelling – you said:
Retreating to your bed on a bus seat
See shining rivers through the vent heat
Trace sky objects in fog - high over beams
In the obscene arranged short stays between dreams
Legs move under the seat – and veins pump constantly-
Like the street - without rest
Rend the old books and repeat – Try your best
Stolen victory back from the beat – life is sweet –
But, you’re just stunned – No rest –
Time to come shallow for a top-side run - Ohh- what a mess…

I KISS THE SPACE
C.O. 3/23/12
I KISS THE SPACE - BETWEEN THE FRAME
WITH THE DOOR WEDGED OPEN - I FEEL AMAZED
BUT I GET OVERWHELMED - THE BUBBLE BREAKS
AND ALL MY HEAT STARTS TO DISSIPATE
I KISS THE SPACE
WITH A WIDE SMILE FROZEN ON MY FACE
I FORGET MY H A T E - I FORGET MY R A G E
I FEEL SO FAR AWAY FROM THE PAIN
W H E N I K I S S T H E S P A C E . . .
I CLOSE THE DOOR – AND WARM MY HANDS –
BY THE FIRE ONCE MORE
AND I WAIT – INSIDE AGAIN - TO SLEEP IN AWE –
AND SOAR - I COUNT TO TEN
I GET OVERWHELMED - THE BUBBLE BREAKS
AND MY OUTLOOK RETALIATES
I CAN SEE THE STARS - EVEN VENUS AND MARS
THEY ARC AND THEY TRACE - AND I FEEL OUT OF PLACE

SMALL WINS
C.O. 5/17/12
EVERY WIN - ANOTHER KNOT IN THE ROPE
THEY HELP SHAPE OUR DESIGN OF HOPE
SO WE CAN LOOK BACK WITH PRIDE
THINGS CHANGE OVER TIME -
WE DON’T ALWAYS HEED THE SIGNS
PERHAPS – WE’RE NOT SO WELL DESIGNED
EVERY DAY – EACH LITTLE BIT
WE GET USED TO THE CHANGES
WE GET USED TO THE GRIT
AND WE GET USED TO AVOIDING ALL THE PAINFUL PITS
THAT’S JUST IT – WE LIVE WITH THE RISK
SMALL WINS HELP US COPE
SO GATHER YOUR STRENGTH AND GO
FIGHT AND WIN AND GLOW
EVERY LOSS – EVERY DODGE-BALL TOSSED
AND THERE IS NO-WHERE LEFT TO HIDE
WHEN THE ENEMY LETS FLY
THINGS CHANGE EVERY TIME -
WE DON’T ALWAYS WIN – WE DON’T ALWAYS RHYME
PERHAPS – WE’RE NOT SO WELL DESIGNED

My Money’s On You
C.O. 8/26/11
American Dream – UnRedeemed – Seems it’s weakened
Take for granted – We landed it – On the Moon
Was it too late – Or was it too soon - Who knew?
My money’s on You –
BUT NOW I’M THINKING - THAT I CAN’T DECIDE
I’LL JUST REACH OUT - AND I’LL CLOSE MY EYES
Then why do I – get confused – every time another ruse
Some say we snooze all day to hide our wounds and bad moods
Was it too late – Or was it too soon - Who knew?
My money’s on You –
NO SURPRISES – I ALREADY KNOW
WHERE WE GO – WE GO HOME
TO THE THE PLACE THAT WE
HOLD IN OUR CHEST FOR OUR OWN
BUT NOW I’M THINKING - THAT I CAN’T DECIDE
I’LL JUST REACH OUT - AND I’LL CLOSE MY EYES…
I’LL CLOSE MY EYES…

BREAKTHROUGH
C.O. 4/30/14
A leading theory is that - As stupid as I am
Something would have killed me Long ago
Had I not learned – To keep my head down and my Profile low
A well-known theory debate - What’s the worst thing to contemplate
when the pressure’s on ?
And everything I do feels second rate -
I always hate it when I’m running late
WAITING FOR A BREAKTHROUGH
NEVER HAPPENS WHEN – YOU WANT IT TO
DON’T WANNA CHALK IT UP TO FATE
I WANNA FOLLOW THROUGH AND BREAK
Evidence tells us – as confused as we are
It’s amazing - that we’re here At All …
We might have died from The Fall - from Grace
it’s a long way down to THIS place
No one debates that this life is a maze - Reward and Regrets
See what happens next phase - We might still be OK
and Happy Ever After - Is just outside these gates
WAITING FOR AN OVERVIEW
A TRUTHFUL PLACE – I CAN TUNE IN TO
NOT ALWAYS FAKED –
HIT YOUR GAVEL - AND RAKE THE RAKE
PLAYBACK THE TAPE - LOCATE THE MISTAKE

Better Than Low
C.O. - 2/6/2010
Home chemisty set – mix the red - Pumps in your head –
Don’t rest the message – Back from the edges
and forget to show your face…
Make the best of a roast- Rake the roof of my mouth –
on the Cleverest post – Unfolded –
All the hyp-notic words - are conviently bolded – and it’s...
BETTER THAN A LOW LIGHT PHOTOGRAPH
The beam retrieves - the glowing grain beneath
Stay on your feet - swept down another path
And if, in the end – you’ve debated to hate me
In the momentary glare – You refuse to face Me
I’m with You there – I’m with You there…
Anti-lock breaks – coffee so steely it gives you the shakes
Head fakes –Dwelling so hard is a wretched mistake -
Bargaining up all the gives and takes
Mind strays – goes places where we don’t behave :
Sane – in our place – self-K is equal parts pain and disgrace
But the Glory awaits – past the Hate you can’t never Erase:
BETTER THAN A LOW LIGHT PHOTOGRAPH
The beam retrieves - the glowing grain beneath
Stay on your feet - swept down another path
And if, in the end – you’ve debated to hate me
In the momentary glare – When You refused to face Me
I’m with You there – I’m with You there…

CHAINSAW STAR
C.O. 5/8/2013
I don’t wanna live in a trailer park
Pine away in the wood, & chew on the bark
Sing all your dirty songs after dark, after work
I pine away - and make good in the day
but every night I try to run away, I run away...
I don’t wanna be a lumberjack's son
Spend all my life on the run
I don't wanna be the chainsaw star
Cutting and splitting myself apart
I don’t wanna live in a rural town
I’d rather go back and put my feet on paved ground
If things could ever go back - like before
I could live simple, I don’t need much more
Back to the city, back to the perks
Sell off the pickup truck, go back to desk work
I don’t wanna be a lumberjack's son
Spend all my life on the run
I don't wanna be a chainsaw star
Cutting and splitting myself apart
I don’t wanna chop down another park
I don’t wanna run through the woods in the dark
I don't wanna be the chainsaw star
Cutting and splitting my life apart

BLUE SCREENS
C.O. 1/9/2012
That's why its so hard to restore you
I know I always bore you
won't just ignore you - when you come in from the rain
anymore would be insane
and a chore to learn more – strike and hold –
mute your phone – Just put it on vibrate
And all the blue screens keep us together apart
All the blue screens keep us together apart
That's why its so hard to implore you
I know I always floor you
won't just restore you - when you text in pain
anymore would be insane
and a chore to learn more – strike and hold –
mute your phone – Just put it on vibrate
And all the blue screens keep us together apart
All the blue screens keep us together apart

IT'S A GIFT
C.O. 1/10/12
Jumble from the storm – is strewn cross the lawn
Even though the car is gone
And I thought I could be strong – Like King Kong
But I was wrong – The odds were long – but then
And I was ohh so wrong – again
when we realize - It's a gift –
I'd rather be awake at the end - It's a gift
No need to drift - away
I'd rather face the end awake
Against gods and devils - and the march of time
I unwind - for a brief time – rest sublime
Guided only in my own mind
Lost on a quest to find - The Grand Design
I’m in a bind – I can’t decide – if I should cry - Or take to the sky
I know I'll find out- Beautiful cause I get to find out
What happens after this - Speculation ends -
I know what’s missed- when the fits outweigh the risks
Then I’ll have my Gift – It’s All a Gift - It can’t be missed!

THIS SKY IS MINE
C.O. – 3/3/2011
This sky is mine - I’ve emerged
Long time without light - Long Time…
This sky is mine - I’ve converged
It’s a good sign - This Sky - This Sky
THIS SKY IS MINE - THIS SKY IS MINE
Now I’m out - I claim this sky
All I see with eyes – unshaded - I claim this sky…
If I could only fly – I could see the whole hillside
I’d rise - and smile
So long underground - So long self-tied and bound
Over and over - I’ve heard - only one sound
Now I’m Found – Now I ‘m Found –
So Profound - I’m Around –
Now I can fly – In my sky – I can’t die – I can fly
THIS SKY IS MINE - THIS SKY IS MINE
