Under clear skies
The “whether” looks good ahead
Under clear skies
Better than being dead
As I walk the land
Try n’ understand
How to increase the value
To you
Maybe with less impact
Spare the whack
Pass the message through
Unto you

]]>Do you even give a damn about the eldest ones
Would you even shed a tear
Is it you you damned with your “said and done’s”
And your maker do you fear?
Do you even give a damn about the “here and now”
Do you even care to care
Is it you that damned your future somehow
Would you even share a care?

Tales of chemtrails never fails
To let the light shine through on you
Ask you “know” questions
You tell “know” lies
Comes as no surprise
Did your brain get going
Without you knowing?
Got up and left
Leaving the daft
… leaving no mind behind
(Be kind!)
What do you know about GMO?
So, do you sow your own row?
Amongst a billion reptilian
Give the alien race space
Ask you “know” questions
You tell “know” lies

Will it ever end the same
If it’s follow the leader, I’m your man
Come on! Can you kick the can?

Or if I’m near

It’s come clear
There is there
And I’m right here

The years went by and I didn’t die
So, I gave the guitar a try
Took me back to the days
When I was young
And learned how to hum
Though through the years there was grief
At least I still have my teeth
So, this’ll be the break to whistle

If you look outside
Then above
It’s not that hard
To find love
Open the window
Into your soul
Define
Your earthly role
Come on down
Look around
Shake the clown
Being found
Done the look within
Now look out
It’s not that hard
To find out
Light escapes
The black hole
Come on down
Look around
Shake the clown
Being found
Look at me
Was blind now see
The way that things
Can be
The though in “we”
Eventually
Creates our destiny
Wills free
Freewill ’til
Eternity

Plunging dark and deep
Embracing the length and breadth
Death at arm’s length keep
… life kept
The wind is blowing you off your feet
You’d better not wait
To drop your weight
Don’t want to fall on your seat
You’d better not wait
Nooo… I wouldn’t hesitate
The lesson: Mother Nature I can not defeat
Nor can I outwait
The human is a light weight
I’ll show respect ever time we meet
Smile, bow, with open arms greet

Anyway, I’m guessing
If I was sitting
Over there
The only big difference in my view
Would be me… sitting on you
Might cause a big tadoo?

So, for now… ’till I figure out how
I’ll just think a bit and sit
Over here
Hey! I’m talking to you… did you

Merrily… life is but a dream
Know what I mean

Dam it! Dam it good! Good, dam it!

’cause he’s not one of us
No matter how marvelous
… tossed under the bus
We just couldn’t fake
That we could take a snake
A man that speaks with forked tongue
Days are numbered to being young
Speaking from both sides it’s said
Will likely wind you up dead

No, I’m not being lazy
Nor am I going crazy
Is your vision hazy?
In my dream
We create a scene
Totally void of mean
(Know what I mean?)
Once we’ve all seen
The light of atomic energy
Can shine for eternity

Draw me near to the time of year
When a creature’s comfort is you
Draw me near to the time of year
When I’m your creature’s comfort, too
Could this long and lonely dry-spell
Be through passing through
Gifts of the sky once fell
Her day’s due a re-do
(Chorus)
Could this long, long lonely season
Be through passing through
Searching for rhyme and reason
In everything you do
(Chorus)

Get to start anew?

LYRICS
Seeking shelter
From Helter Skelter
All hell
Is breaking loose
Farewell
If we don’t choose
Fight or flight?
You better ask
If we multitask
When viewed
You’ve come unglued
Time to be subdued
Lewd, rude, crude
Flood the hate
With the love
Flood the light
From above
Not too late
Flood with love
Suffocate hate
Show ’em what we’re made of?
We’re made of love
The insight of floodlight
Floodlight incite in sight
Invite floodlight

LYRICS
Handicap. Have you got one, too?
All of us, just trying to get through
Following orders… hut, 1, 2
Starting to think that just won’t do
In your eyes
I see paradise
Realize
Eyes on the prize
Life before it dies
Stuck inside your castle walls
Waiting ’til the kingdom falls
Can’t escape your nightmares
Regain hope and lose your fears
In your eyes
I see paradise
Realize
Eyes on the prize
Life before it dies
Life before us lies
The captain says you may move about
Just as long as you don’t venture out
Quite the contrary revolutionary
Weight of the world on your shoulders carry
In your eyes
I see paradise
Realize
Eyes on the prize
Life before us lies

What it is you did
Can’t be rid or hid
What it is you do
Will define you
What I’ll come to be
Is really up to me
As time is fleeting
Life’s for the taking
Before completing
Life’s in the making
Simultaneous us
Lives for the taking
The glorious us
Lives in the making

Look that devil in the “I”… and say, #uck it!”

Counterclockwise
Wise compromise
Is it a big deal
TO day-to-day steal
A 60 minute bit
Or will Mother Nature throw a fit?
Ripping the continuum
Asking if I am?

When do you think will…
Will stand still?
Hoping it’s long until
We lose that thrill
’cause I’m asking ya…
Have you had your fill?
Now find out how…
How is right now
Maybe time will allow
Us to love the “wow!”
’cause she’s telling us
Seize the here and now
Turning sword into plough
Sowing seeds that endow

My recollection
Tinged by selection
The glory days
Aren’t as good as todays
Welcome to “the best is yet to come”
Then some….
I see that the dream
Can be seen
The scene of yesterdays
Isn’t as good as today’s
Welcome to “the best is yet to come”
Then some….
Today’s quite O.K.
Evermore tomorrow
I’ll let the past pass
And grab now while it lasts
Welcome to “the best is yet to come”
Then some….

]]>And what about
Three strikes you’re out
Before four
Just need one more
Four sure
Barely alive
Passing by five
Not a peep
At six feet deep
… that’s deep!
Dead on
Hit the nail on the head
Carry on
Unflail the dread
Dawned on
Enlightened my head
Beyond
where the logic led
Philosophy wed

Please steer clear
Getting too near
It’s easy to see
We don’t want to go there
Aware, we don’t want to go there
Meander away
Bewildered all day
What do you say
Maybe we lost our way
Perhaps we lost our way?

Bizarre bazaar
Cause the wail of the whale
Seal the fate of the seal
Account for our big deal
Save an epic fail
Account for what we are
Two I’s with two eyes
I see two I’s are we
Together you and me — we
